Eagle Scout

It is a culmination of the effort I expended from the time I was a tiger cub to the moment my mother pinned it on my breast. It’s my Eagle Scout medal, and it’s my greatest achievement. My most formative experience was the year I spent as senior patrol leader, and it was crucial to my achievement of this medal. I was a mere sophomore, who was tasked with turning around a declining troop, sometimes having to make some difficult decisions. This experience shaped me into the young man I am today…

My biggest step is earning the honor of Eagle Scout in Boy Scouts, which is the highest rank in the scouting program. My services to the community include helping with many of my peers eagle scout projects some including, Creating a satellite library at a local park, building bleachers at a church, beautifying the community with trees and flowers, as well as creating a community garden. In addition to those service projects, I have played with my band at the veterans day concerts to honor…

One of my most meaningful service experiences was my Eagle Scout project. One of the requirements for obtaining the rank of Eagle is that the Scout must complete a service project that benefits the community; my project was to fundraise, organize, and oversee construction of a new pavilion at the Fowler Center for Outdoor Learning, a special needs camp, near Mayville, MI. The Fowler Center is a non-profit organization and a year round camp for kids with special needs. One of their programs,…

Eagle Scout-ing for Books According to a study conducted in late April by the U.S. Department of Education and the National Institute of Literacy, 32 million adults in the United States cannot read. That is 14 percent of the population. This study also stated that 21 percent of adults in the U.S. read below a 5th-grade level, and 19 percent of high school graduates cannot read. To help combat this, one Edgewood High School junior has set up a book drive at his school to collect donations for…

When sitting down to decide what my Eagle Scout Project would encompass I never thought that the choice would result in such an impact into the future. My project benefitted the Guide Dogs of Texas Organization, and through teamwork and dedication produced several light and portable PVC puppy agility training equipment (i.e, weave poles, agility ladder, and teeter-totter) and wood cabinet laundry/bedding storage. As minor as theses items may seem, these objects will continue to work to improve…

When it came time for me to begin thinking of an Eagle Scout Service Project, I wanted to do something that would ultimately impact my immediate community and last a long time. I did not want a project that would only last for a short amount of time, I wanted something that would last and leave an impact on others. With this thought process in mind, I also wanted to give back to a community that helped me become the person I am today. I decided I wanted to give back to the two elementary…

LONE EAGLE The rank of Lone Eagle is similar to the Boy Scout rank of Eagle Scout, but with a specific focus on character and leadership. I was considered for the award after completing the qualifications for mastery of Survival, Archery, Swimming, Tripping (Orienteering), Canoeing, and Campcraft. After extensive interviews regarding my leadership at camp and the way I served my campers and fellow staff, I was inducted into the Lone Eagle Fellowship, which is committed to praying for and serving…

One of the traits Kangaroos have is a 324-degree field of vision with 25-degree overlap. This allows for them to see in almost all directions allowing for Kangaroos to have higher chances of survival because it allows them to see possible predators before they arrive. It also especially helps because of there climate which is mostly desert flatlands and preys can come from places, from the ground, the skies and from all sides so such big field of vision allows for them to be protected. Another…
