What does being an Eagle Scout mean to you? Becoming an Eagle Scout to me means you have allowed Scout Law to aid and shape your growth. For the betterment of yourself and those around you.
How did earning the rank prepare you for the future? Earning the Eagle Scout rank has provided me the adaptability, the knowledge, and the morals to guide me through the rest of my life.
What advice would you give to younger Scouts who aspire to become Eagle Scouts? If you have this opportunity do not let it pass by. It is the opportunity of a lifetime to better yourself and your future.
Please share a favorite Scouting memory. A day in my Scout camp back in Michigan where I officially earned my merit badges in one day and concluded by simply relaxing with my Troop by the fire. In that moment, everything felt peaceful.
