BLEEDING BLUE AWARD: FOR THE PERSON WITH THE MOST BOYS IN CUB SCOUTS

It's nice to be sure that every person in cubs gets an award at the Blue & Gold Banquet, including the adults who serve in Cub Scouts.  However, it is best to also include at least one appreciating award at every pack meeting.

"Everyone deserves to be recognized no matter how large or small the contribution. When people feel appreciated they are more likely to help in the future. It makes them feel important and that they matter!

When saying thank you to someone, be sure to be specific in the thanks and pinpoint what and how they helped you the most. Saying thanks in a traditional way is always better than not at all, but if you want to express your thanks in a more unique or silly way, it may be a bit more memorable for the recipient."

Here are two lists I have found of ways to say "thank you".
