“Since 1912, the Eagle Scout rank has represented a milestone of accomplishment—perhaps without equal— that is recognized across the country and even the world. Those who have earned the Eagle Scout rank it among their most treasured achievements. 'Eagle Scout' is not just an award; it is a state of being. Those who earned it as youth continue to earn it every day as adults. That is why an Eagle Scout IS an Eagle Scout—not was.”
(Guide to Advancement, page 62)

Are You Trained to Use Everything in Your Program?


Why are you involved with Scouting? Do you know the purpose of the
program you are involved in?

The scouting program is like a chair with 4 legs, if one of those legs is broken or is not 
being used then the chair is not balanced and will cause the person who sits on it to fall.

For example: if the four legs were labeled as
  • Character development
  • Leadership development
  • Citizenship Training
  • Personal Fitness
And leaders only focus on Character development, then our scouts would miss out on learning leadership skills or citizenship training. Scouting is a well-balanced program!

Being Specific Leadership Trained will help you know about all areas of scouting and will help you implement a full and balanced scouting experience to those in your unit. You can be trained online on your My.scouting.org account or come to the next in person training, Saturday, Oct. 7, 2023, at the Logan Scout Service Center. Registration will be ready by September 1. Cost $5.

We hope to see you there.
