Today was the annual Scout Fair for all the troops in the area. I noticed troops from Imperial and Riverside Counties so it wasn't just limited to those in San Diego County. The Scout Fair is held annually at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego. There are lots of troops who exhibit their activities with booths, food booths and all kinds of informational booths for the boys. But the highlight for many of these younger scouts is the opportunity to earn a handful of belt loops in a single day. Belt loops are earned when the scout has sucessfully completed several items, usually it is an experience or specific knowledge about something. There is a belt loop for just about anything you can imagine. Today, Thomas earned belt loops for Astronomy, Geography and Computers, bringing his total to 15 belt loops earned.
