Monday evening at Claremore Lake, Pack 141 Webelos II Scout, Caleb Honeycutt earned the Arrow of Light. Caleb will continue his scouting career with Boy Scout Troop 828.
The Arrow of Light is both a rank and an award, according to Chairman Terry Hancock. It is the highest achievement in Cub Scouting, and the only Cub Scout Award that can still be worn once a scout enters ScoutsBSA. Adult leaders who earned the Arrow of Light Award may show their achievement by wearing a special square knot on their uniform.
