Dr. Chris Kennedy's Award Presentation

The Meads family periodically gives awards to those special folks who have made a difference in our lives. Chris Kennedy was a student of ours and graduated with our eldest daughter, Rachael.

This ceremony and dinner was held yesterday evening at Oliverio's Restaurant in Bridgeport. After a fine meal of pasta, it was time for the ceremony. First, Chris was given the honor of becoming a member of the Order of the Golden Baculum. You will notice the excitement and thrill on his face!


























The second part of the award was the presentation of the sacred rock crawler (Grylloblattodae). This symbol is highly cherished by all for it's rarity. The living critter can be found only in cold climates and frequently at the edge of glaciers. Chris was thrilled to have this treasure now in his possession.























The festivites included dinner with Jeff, Sarah, and SAM!

Thank you for sharing this lad! This is an honor that has only been given 2 times in the past 1300 years. Chris earned quite an honor and I certain that he will display the Golden Baculum proudly! (chuckle)

You can rest assured that the Golden Baculum is proudly displayed in my domicile. That was certainly an honor I didn't expect. As for the Sacred Mascot...it will be guarded and protected with the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch. Thank you so much. I just don't have the words.
