For me, each of my grandchildren is a ‘light’ in my life. Today, I watched Ollie receive his Arrow of Light and cross over to Boy Scouts. He is the third and final Goldpebble that I will have had the privilege to watch go through this ceremony and it was a beautiful reminder of how bright Ollie’s light shines in this world. I am so lucky to live close by and to be able to be a part of these special events. Both of Ollie’s brothers were there to greet him as he crossed into Boy Scouts … a very special welcome. Jed performed his final official duty as Master of Falmouth Cub Scouts. He will still be involved in the final training of the incoming Master at some camping events, but soon that volunteer commitment will be over. Congratulations to Ollie, to Heather and Jed as parents, and to Jed for his years devoted to Falmouth Cub Scouts.
