STAY CONNECTED May's Eagle Scout of the Month & E-newsletter May's Eagle Scout of the month is Ross B. from Troop 67 in Longmont, Colorado. Ross says, “Scouting has taught me many valuable lessons. I would say the greatest skill that I learned was to live by principles. The Scout Law outlines what a good Scout should display in their everyday life. Doing my best every day to live by these principles is what I will use as a guide for the rest of my life.” Ross’s Eagle Scout project benefited Rocky Mountain Christian Church in Longmont. The main goal of the project is to attract people to the church and serve as a connecting point for the youth ministry of the church. Ross built a façade of a cabin to look like a ranger station inside of his church where students can meet and connect. Ross says, “Scouting has helped me to understand that life isn’t easy and it’s going to be filled with failures and setbacks, but accomplishing the Eagle rank showed me that there is something to look forward to in the struggle. Enduring struggle is how I grow the most as a person.” Ross is currently a senior at Silver Creek High School and he is a member of the National Honors Society. He plays soccer for his high school and club soccer for St. Vrain FC on the U19 green team. This fall he plans to attend Colorado Mesa University and pursue a degree in Business. Congratulations Ross! Merit Badge Classes On-line We have offered 15 Merit Badge Classes On-line. Thank you for your participation. We are working on offering more merit badges in June.
