Nice project ZM! Congrats for making it to the exhalted ranks of the Eagle Scouts!

No I didn't make it to Eagle Scout.. I did go as far as Life Scout, but then girls & sports got in the way of my scouting.. something which to this day I regret.

Two Eagle Scouts in my family. My younger brother and I. This is proof that my parents are amazing people!!! I keep involved in scouting. Over the years I've been a Cub Scout leader, Boy Scout Leader, Merit Badge Counselor, and Committee Member. Every year I teach a 5 day course to new adult leaders. My favorite activity is still the pinewood derby. Each year 4 or 5 scouts knock on my door asking for help building theirs.



If you build it, I will come.......and bomb it !!!

I'm (an old) one... W/ silver palm and a brotherhood member of O/A. I am very proud of that achievement, although it seems like a lifetime ago. I have daughters, I'm self employed, and I am usually 1000 miles from home, so being active in any form or leadership is just not going to happen anytime soon. But it is still close to my heart, and the more involved guys and current scouts have my deepest respect.

While I'm obviously not an Eagle Scout, I helped a close friend of mine on his service project. We built surfboard racks and a patio overhang for a Wounded Warrior rehab center that was near the beach. Lots of fun, and the veterans really loved it.

My friend (the Eagle Scout) joined the Navy with me and he's currently working on getting in NSW.

I did not know you joined the Navy. You are just full of surprises. It's quite the honor to have you on our "team" at the JR.

Wow LUNA, I'm impressed, what do you do in the NAVY?

I wasn't a scout but I did teach a GROUND SCHOOL course for the scouts.

My life other than school and dogfight is scouts!! I became an Eagle Scout at the age of 14. In addition, I will be a vigil member of the local OA lodge, and am trying to rank in Venturing. I have also earned a heroism award. Not trying to brag. But I've got a history with that organization. It is my life, and will forever be a part of it. I hiked at Philmont this past summer!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I should have also shared this, but my project consisted of building 36 eastern blue bird nesting boxes for a local state park. It took about a year. The most memorable aspect of the project, came about a year after its completion when I returned to see if my project boxes had been put up. When I saw them, I saw an Eastern Blue bird fly through the bushes, and then I knew that I had made a substantial impact.

Stay in OA as long as you can. Too many scouts stay out or just go for the sash. I'm sure you've heard of sash and dashers. It is a great program with a lot of cool stuff (NOAC 2015) baby! Hope to see you there brother.

I too am a Eagle Scout. Class of 2010.

My Eagle project was a welcome sign/garden for a local park.
Turned a small grass field into a small garden with close to 30 shrubs, flowers, and oriental grasses.

I joined the OA but due to school activities was unable to progress further.
I also had Brownsea/NYLT- National Youth Leadership Training
and I am a fifth year Pipestone holder.

the picture of me that made it into the papers after my eagle court of honor.





I am an Eagle with silver palm, the first in my troop to achieve either (only one to have an eagle palm). I am a brother hood member of the OA, as well as senior patrol leader. I'll post a current pic of me in full class A sometime...

Eagle April 2, 2012

My project was building two sign boards/kiosks, two pvc stretching stations, and a bench for a flood control park.
