I was invited to attend a (much!) younger cousin's Eagle Scout ceremony out of state. It's this weekend so I won't be able to go; but they are having some kind of catered reception afterward.
I got a card to congratulate him (I hardly know him) but is sending $20 appropriate? He's graduating high school in a couple months so I know i'll be sending another gift then too. I know it's a big deal to become an Eagle Scout and it involves lots of work. So it feels appropriate to send something; even though I cannot make the actual ceremony. (It's kind of odd to put it the day before Easter; if you ask me!)
