The boys, members of from Pack 145, chartered by Knights of Columbus, will be members of Troop 163, chartered by Trinity Lutheran Men’s group.

The bridging ceremony was part of the Pack’s Blue and Gold banquet, which also included an Arrow of Light ceremony.

Two of the Scouts, Cole and Noah, earned the Arrow of Light award, which is the highest award a Cub Scout can earn and is the only Cub Scout award that can be worn on the Boy Scout uniform. The Arrow of Light is awarded to Scouts who earn a required number of badges and have been active participating in camps and events with their potential Boy Scout Troop.

The five scouts are all fifth-graders at St. John’s Academy.
