Keep up the good work, most scouts don’t make it past 1st class.

I'm an Eagle Scout with three Eagle Scout Palms: Bronze, Gold, & Silver. There is a description of the palms in your Scout book.


Some laws permit, what honor dose not.

Rookie:
Scouting has been a part of my life. I made it to the rank of Life, I have been a Scoutmaster, committee member, Advancement Chairman, Committee Charman,etc. for the past
50 years. Being a Boy Scout has made sone great experiences and lasting memories of activities and outings. Keep advancing to Eagle as it's a recognized great accomplishment by Industry, the Military and the NASA.

Keep up the good work my friend. I am currently a Venture crew advisor, just moved into that slot from crew member<img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle> I am proud to be an Eagle, and I have 2 palms to add to it as well. I only wish I had become a bit more active in OA(I'm only an Ordeal member), which is another great part of scouting, and tends to be a lot more fun when you get into high school than the regular scouting.

UUU, I was a scout long time ago, but in Guatemala it&#180;s not a very big institution so it&#180;s hard to keep earning things yo get 18 and you are gone <img src="sad.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Eagle Scout Class of 1997, OA Vigil Honor 1998. As for Thorin's comment about most not making it past 1st Class, I did a little research.

Using my council as a guide, 39% make it to Star, 18% to Life, and a paltry 3.5% to the windswept summit of Eagle.

Keep on going, even when things get difficult. The rewards are numerous for the time spent, and the award is far more than just a pin, it's a way of life! <img src="smile.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle>

Keepin' it real...real sharp, that is.
