Eagle Scouts

2011
Dan Beard Council

Scouting was one of my favorite activities I have ever taken part in. Both my older brothers are Eagle Scouts, and my parents were heavily involved. Unfortunately, the troop essentially dwindled off as me and a few other boys ranked out.

BSA is a great organization, and I hate to see it losing popularity in this area. My leaders were very involved, and we did pretty decent at events. Personal favorite was always the Peterloon Jamboree here in SW Ohio, cool to see scouts from around the world! On that note, every year we stayed at the same summer camp location, and next door was always a scout troop from Israel. Traded some badges and such. :glasses7:

Always wanted to go to Philmont. Never made it, but we did canoe the Boundary Waters in Minnesota.
