AuburnJen 771 Posted April 19, 2011 Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 Our local pack 420 has an Eagle Scout candidate that is almost finished with his Eagle Scout project. He is building a bird sanctuary and is in need of funding to finish his project. FortFiends.net has just sent him a donation for supplies and has told him that whatever his needs are to let us know.Eagle Scouts are the future leaders of our country. :heart: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ajcjmom 8 Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Very Nice! As a mom to an Eagle Scout, every little bit helps. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PureTcrazy...rita 380 Posted April 21, 2011 Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 This is a good idea! One of our local Eagle Scouts built the restrooms for our K-8 school ball fields. Another one did a really cool landscaping project at the same school. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AuburnJen 771 Posted April 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2011 Please let us know if there is a scout in need as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We usually do a slideshow like this at our Eagle COH's and it is my favorite part. You just don't realize how much they grew up as you are going along but when you go back at look at it from the start to finish, it is just an awsome feeling. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DaveInTN 3,247 Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 VERY cool. Scouting is a great organization for young men. Kept me on the straight and narrow. (Straight and narrow being the path connecting the boy scout camp with Camp Wannabaggabangbang...the girl scout camp). Hey, but seriously, scouting taught me an awful lot and was a great influence on me. Very worthy project. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
disney4dan 68 Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 I'm enjoying working with Matt in his scouting as well. It's not easy, and there are some uncomfortable nights on the ground (next weekend is a camporee), but it gives me a chance to watch him grow through the tween to teen years and he seems willing to go for his Eagle!Working on learning how to tie 6 knots quickly for a team competition this weekend (taught line, bowline, clove hitch, two half hitch, sheet bend and square knots). He's also learning how to prepare menus and meals, work on camping essentials. I think I'm learning a little along the way also. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AuburnJen 771 Posted April 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 I got a wonderful thank you email from Jeremy and hopefully he will join us and keep us updated on his progress towards his progress on his project completion and his eventual earning of the Eagle Scout honor.
