From my beginning as a Wolf Scout to my current promotion as an Eagle Scout, the Scouting program has always existed as a fundamental aspect of my life that has largely shaped my morals and personality. The picture above represents not only a culmination of the hard work that I have dedicated towards achieving a great honor, but also a large influence that has helped guide me through life. Through every campout, service project, fundraiser, and planning conference, Scouting constantly helped me…

The Boy Scouts of America is one of the largest youth organizations in the nation, having an astounding 2.4 million youth involved in its programs. Since 2007 I have been lucky to consider myself one of those members. Starting in third grade, I joined as a Bear Cub, in the Cub Scout program, and have made my way from there up to the highest rank in Boy Scouts, Eagle. When I started my journey I was a fairly quiet kid, reserved and not very good at controlling a group. The Boy Scouts program…

As I worked toward my Eagle Scout Award, I became Senior Patrol Leader of my Boy Scout Troop #83. In this role, I was to lead the troop of 15-20 active members ranging from fifth grade to twelfth grade. When I took this leadership role, the troop was having difficulty retaining membership, the parents complained about lengthy award events, the youth leadership that I replaced did not take their role seriously, scout behavior became disruptive and unacceptable, and overall the meetings just…

I am attracted to the Boy Scout program by the campouts, service projects, helping Cub Scouts, and the normal fun things Boy Scouts do. I began Cub Scouts and that helped me get a feel for what Boy Scouts is. I did all the ranks from Tiger to Weblo 2, although I did not create an Arrow Of Light when I crossed over to Boy Scout. I joined Boy Souts and thought it would be "lame", but that was the total opposite of what I thought, that also attracted me to Boy Scouts because I learned what you do…

in life and how much of a different boy he would be if he grew into a high class family that did not have any problems. Often during the day, Jack would be off smoking a cigarette and putting on a façade of manliness as he would describe how he did things such as “kill the turkey in Chinook”. Instead of stating the truth and showing his friends the boy that moves all…

and through the various clubs that I lead. The Christiana Care VolunTeen program allows young adults to help serve at the hospital in various areas, often exposing teenagers to how a hospital operates. Specifically, I worked in the Outpatient Pharmacy, SurgiCenter, and Pathology/Histology Lab, assisting patients and doctors with their various needs and tasks. Throughout the two summers that I volunteered at the hospital, I helped fold several hundred…
