What does being an Eagle Scout mean to you? Being an Eagle Scout has meant so much to me. I have learned so much and will use this information and experiences throughout the rest of my life.

If you had to describe your entire Scouting experience with just one word, what word would you choose? Why? Respect. The reason I chose respect is because that is what was in everything. No matter what you are doing you always have to have a level of respect for everything.

How did earning the rank prepare you for the future? Earning the Eagle Scout rank prepared me for the future through the ability to speak with adults.

By doing your Eagle Service Project, what did you learn about managing or leading people? I learned that if you know what you are doing, you lead by example.

What advice would you give to younger Scouts who aspire to become Eagle Scouts? My advice is to get your Eagle required badges and do your paperwork and have fun.

Please share a favorite Scouting memory. My favorite memory is camping with my brother and all of my friends, building fires, and chipping wood.
