Troop 228 had a fantastic Court of Honor. We had 17 boys advance in rank and 26 merit badges handed out since our last Court of Honor in October. And congratulations to our very own Scoutmaster Paul Cirillo on earning the Wood Badge. The Wood Badge is a Scouting leadership program and the related award for adult leaders in the programs of Scout associations throughout the world. Wood Badge courses aim to make Scouters better leaders by teaching advanced leadership skills, and by creating a bond and commitment to the Scout movement.
