Haddock: Friend, Brother, Leader During lunch Brad noticed Dr. Goodman giving him his undivided attention, making him feel as if he were the most important person in the world. The second occurred during the 60th Anniversary Celebration at Treasure Island Scout Camp. Arriving late, Brad and National Vice Chief Eddie Stumler stood in the back of the audience behind two young Arrowmen during the opening flag ceremony. Unnoticed by the two, Brad and Eddie overheard their conversation. They wanted to meet and talk with the national officers, but they remained unsure how to introduce themselves. As the two turned around following the ceremony, they recognized the national officers and became tongue-tied. Brad and Eddie quickly introduced themselves and engaged the two young Arrowmen in conversation. Brad realized that as a leader, people should not have to come to you; you should go to them, be approachable, and make them feel comfortable.

    Life to Eagle Trail Monmouth Council BSA Advancement Team 2017/2018 Life to Eagle Trail Agenda • Purpose • Introduction • Eagle Requirements • Eagle Scout Board of Review (BOR) • Eagle Scout Project Ideas • Eagle Scout Service Project Workbook Life to Eagle Trail Purpose The Trail to Eagle Guide has been prepared by Monmouth Council Advancement Committee to guide and assist scouts seeking to advance from Life rank to the Eagle Scout rank. This Guide outlines the applicable Council procedures and processes, provides helpful hints, and addresses many of the questions that scouts and leaders have about the process. We urge you to read and become thoroughly familiar with the contents of this guide. Life to Eagle Trail Introduction CONGRATULATIONS for earning Life Scout Rank! Look around your Troop – not a lot of heart-shaped badges to be seen, are there? At each stop on Scouting’s Advancement Trail, fewer and fewer Scouts remain from the group you started with as a Tenderfoot Scout. You have traveled high on Scouting’s Trail to Eagle. You are just one step away from the highest and most prestigious rank in Scouting, Eagle Scout. Why should you go on to Eagle? As Sir Edmund Hillary replied when asked why he climbed Mt. Everest, “Because it’s there!” You are so close now that not going on will be the cause of regret in the future. The main reason to continue is for your own personal sense of meeting an enormous challenge – completing the requirements that few earn. Achieving Eagle Scout Rank is a symbol of achievement recognized throughout the country.

  • 2020 Massabesic Klondike Derby Rules, Instructions, and Information
    2020 Massabesic Klondike Derby Rules, Instructions, and Information (Patrol Leaders, Unit Leaders and station staff should read and know before the event. Be aware changes have been made since last year.) The Klondike Derby is a test of scout skills and of the patrol method. If your troop routinely practices traditional scout skills and is “scout-led”, you’ll find nothing unfamiliar with what is expected of you to score well. No matter your score, your participation in this event will help make you a better troop and will strengthen the bonds that make good patrols. Ideally, scouts will learn their strengths and weaknesses and have a fun weekend. We are very proud of all our participants. CHANGE FROM PREVIOUS YEARS: Senior patrols have been eliminated in favor of a rank handicapping system. In previous years, patrols of higher ranking scouts were segregated into a “senior” division. However, they still completed the same challenges as “regular” patrols at all stations, and typically only a very small number of patrols were identified as a senior patrol. This year all patrols will be handicapped based on the ranks of patrol members, which will level the playing field for all patrols. Details of the handicapping system are described in the scoring section below. Patrols should be “natural” patrols as much as possible; if natural patrols need to be merged to crew a Klondike sled, efforts should be made to average out ranks as much as possible. Troops must submit a patrol roster including each scout’s rank at registration, at which time the patrol’s handicap will be determined.
