Lot #165: 9 Vintage Burlington District Cubs, Beavers & Youth Soccer Badges

A wonderful little piece of Burlington, Ontario youth-program history, this collection brings together 9 vintage embroidered badges and a Burlington Youth Soccer Club pennant, dating primarily from the early 1990s. For anyone who grew up in the Burlington scouting community, these aren’t simply old patches. They’re the kind of things that can bring back memories of Cub meetings, camp weekends, summer adventures, earning badges, district events and proudly adding another patch to the collection. The lot includes: * Burlington District Cuboree 1991 badge * Burlington District Cub-O-Ree 1992 badges, 3 examples * Burlington District Beaver Bee badge * Burlington District commemorative/program badge * Burlington Youth Soccer Club embroidered pennant * Burlington Youth Soccer Club badges, 2 examples The 1991 Cuboree and 1992 Cub-O-Ree badges are particularly evocative of the era, while the Burlington Youth Soccer pieces add another wonderfully local layer to the collection. A great lot for a former Burlington-area Cub, Beaver, Scout, youth soccer player or parent, as well as collectors of Canadian scouting memorabilia, vintage embroidered patches and local history. These would make a terrific addition to a scouting blanket, memorabilia display, scrapbook or personal collection. Condition: Previously owned vintage pieces with some age/storage wear. Please see photographs for details. The soccer pennant has its original hanging cord and wooden dowel. 9 pieces total. AT Pickup category timeslot {A}
