What does being an Eagle Scout mean to you?
Being an Eagle Scout means to me that I am a part of an accomplished group that will help me the rest of my life.
If you had to describe your entire Scouting experience with just one word, what word would you choose? Why?
Experience. Scouting has provided me many memories that will impact me for the rest of my life.
How did earning the rank prepare you for the future?
I learned many life skills such as responsibility, team work, time management and many others.
By doing your Eagle Service Project, what did you learn about managing or leading people?
Before my project I did not know how to lead others very well. Now I know to have people do what their strengths are.
What advice would you give to younger Scouts who aspire to become Eagle Scouts?
Do not wait thinking you have time to do it later, that time goes quicker than you think.
Please share a favorite Scouting memory.
My favorite Scouting memory was the first week I spent at Camp C.S. Klaus. I met many new people and many valuable skills.
