Cub Scouts in grades first through fifth have been working all year on their rank achievements in such areas as citizenship, nature, conservation, outdoorsmanship and health. Fifteen scouts were awarded their rank badges, including Travis Bartlett and Jaykee Schaffer, who earned the Arrow of Light, the Cub Scouts’ highest award. For more information about scouting, please call Jenny Kuglin: (785) 550-7196.
