Drew received his Arrow of Light award. As part of the ceremony, Manina got to come up and paint some symbolic markings on Drew’s face. Drew has always been excited about scouting.

Claire’s field trip to Timpanogos Cave
I volunteered to go with Claire’s class to hike up to Timpanogos Cave in American Fork Canyon. I have been fortunate enough to have gone on this fifth grade field trip with Miss Louw’s class three times in the past. I always volunteer because I love it. If you’re going to go on a field …
