Boys Life Prize

The UPS guy stopped by yesterday with a package for my youngest son. A few months ago, he had decided to contribute a joke just to see what would happen. Well, yesterday he became an official Boys' Life contributor with an official patch and everything! The package contained a letter from Pedro, this patch, and a BSA Fieldbook - now that's pretty cool.

He's planning to keep it secret until the March issue comes out with his joke in print. Then, he'll show it at a troop meeting so all the newly joined scouts can see what is possible.

Encourage your scouts to contribute a joke, collection idea, comic caption, or any of the other contests they have running at the BoysLife.org site. For example, you can win a Wii game system for the next week by finding a Pedro image on the site. (but, don't enter that one because my son really wants to win.)
