Woo Hooo! Eagle Project done

I finally finished my Eagle project after about 6 months of being lazy.

For those of you who don't know, Eagle Scout is the highest rank in Boy Scouts of America. Planning, leading, and carrying out a service project is the main, and typically final, requirement to reach that rank.

My project was to build and paint 18 signs for the Forest Service. The pictures should be developed sometime before Wednesday (I hope). In the meantime, those curious can take a look at the plans over here.

Congratulations Matt. I just got approved for my Eagle a couple weeks ago. My project was tough too. Mine was installing benches in a local park. How much more do you need for the rank?

I've got all of the merit badges and leadership requirements.

All I've got left is to write up the project and go through the Board of Review.

Congrats!

I have no idea at all what rank is what or anyhting at all relating to scouts, but a job well done is a job well done

I was an ASM for 8 years. Retired two years ago. Two of my Scouts are getting their Eagle this year.

Thanks everyone

Just curious, how many people in this forum are Eagle Scouts?

I reached the rank of Eagle when I was 17. That was many moons ago.
