    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.

  • The Canadian Cadet Movement and the Boy Scouts of Canada in the Twentieth Century
    “No Mere Child’s Play”: The Canadian Cadet Movement and the Boy Scouts of Canada in the Twentieth Century by Kevin Woodger A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Kevin Woodger 2020 “No Mere Child’s Play”: The Canadian Cadet Movement and the Boy Scouts of Canada in the Twentieth Century Kevin Woodger Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto Abstract This dissertation examines the Canadian Cadet Movement and Boy Scouts Association of Canada, seeking to put Canada’s two largest uniformed youth movements for boys into sustained conversation. It does this in order to analyse the ways in which both movements sought to form masculine national and imperial subjects from their adolescent members. Between the end of the First World War and the late 1960s, the Cadets and Scouts shared a number of ideals that formed the basis of their similar, yet distinct, youth training programs. These ideals included loyalty and service, including military service, to the nation and Empire. The men that scouts and cadets were to grow up to become, as far as their adult leaders envisioned, would be disciplined and law-abiding citizens and workers, who would willingly and happily accept their place in Canadian society. However, these adult-led movements were not always successful in their shared mission of turning boys into their ideal-type of men. The active participation and complicity of their teenaged members, as peer leaders, disciplinary subjects, and as recipients of youth training, was central to their success.

  • October 23, 2019 Today We Received Additional Information Regarding The
    October 23, 2019 Today we received additional information regarding the 2020 National Fee increase that was announced in late September. The full announcement is included below with excerpts taken for this letter. To ensure we have the resources to fulfill the promise of Scouting despite increasing operating costs, the National Executive Board of the Boy Scouts of America has made the difficult but necessary decision to increase the annual membership fee effective January 1, 2020 to: - $60 for youth members in Cub Scouts, Scouts BSA, Venturing and Sea Scouts, - $36 for youth members in Exploring, and - $36 for adult members Early in 2019 the Western Los Angeles County Council introduced a planned Program fee for 2020 of $50.00 per registered youth (with a cap of three youth per household) and $12.00 per registered adult. When the National Council initially indicated that a fee increase was likely the Western Los Angeles County Council (WLACC) recognized the potential challenge a layered fee increase would cause our Scouting families, units, and charter partners. WLACC committed to offset the soon to be announced National membership fee increase out of the previously announced local council program fee for 2020. Based on the National fee increase the updated fee figures for 2020 are as follows: Youth members in Cub Scouts, Scouts BSA, Venturing and Sea Scouts $83.00* per year ($60.00 National registration fee plus $23.00 Council program fee). *$95.00 if including a Scout Life Magazine Subscription Youth members in Exploring $83.00 per year ($36.00 National registration fee plus $47.00 Council program fee).
