As we are about to celebrate the introduction of six new Eagles into our convocation, the article re-enforces what we as a troop already know, that scouting is alive and well. With over enough Scouts to fill Dodgers Stadium, 2.5 million s of service hours in Eagle projects, definitely signify a validation of Baden Powell’s vision. More impressive still is that this not just a one-time event, but on par with number of Eagle Scout’s for the last five years. Take some time to read the article and I think that you will be surprised with what you learn.
