Congratulations to our Cubmaster!!

He probably won't appreciate that this posting is up, but he earned it so it's worth sharing!  

Last night at the Massasoit District awards supper, our very own cubmaster, Ryan LaRoche, was awarded with the highest award that can be given to a scouting volunteer--the prestigious District Award of Merit!  One person is chosen each year to receive this award, but this year 2 recipients were chosen.  (The other person is a secret, but still near and dear to pack 118!)  Ryan was chosen as one of the 2 because of his constant service to scouting.  Not only has he run the pack all year, he also taught classes at Scouter University, he put together and ran classes for this spring's OWL/BALOO training, he ran the district pinewood derby, took place in the council's chuckwagon Derby, joined the district committee as the cub scout activities chairperson, aided in the Walker Memorial, planned and was involved in the district camporee, and he's camp director of Webelos Resident Camp! 

If you know Ryan at all, you know he hates being recognized for anything, but he truly deserves to be recognized this year.  Being his wife, yes, I'm biased, but he's a great leader and a scout at heart.  He truly deserves this award and all the recognition that goes with it. 

Congratulations Ryan!!!  A job well done!!!
