I Started Scouts on 5/25/2023. Many memories were made in a short period with many new people. There are a total of 7 ranks in Scouts. Scout, Tenderfoot, Second Class, First Class, Star, Life, and Eagle Scout. Eagle Scout is the highest. This page is dedicated to showing you my memories so far of Scouts.
6/4/2023: Me and some fellow scouts decided to help Magnuson Park by clearing out some invasive species. Also it helps us get community service hours:
6/10/2023: First Scout troop campout! made some Biriyani there too!
6/13/2023: Got my scout uniform and ranked up to Scout from unranked.
9/3/2023: I wanted to help one of my friends with his Eagle rank project, so I decided to do some community service with him and a few other scouts for about 3 hours:
Before:
After:
4/28/2024 (Quick Recap from the past year): Got 3 more ranks — Tenderfoot, Second Class, and First Class — and a few merit badges. Became patrol leader for my patrol. Lots more community service, including a Christmas tree pickup to raise money for scouts. Went on a snow campout where me and my friends froze.
The 2024 Summer Camp at Camp Parsons: It was this first Scout campout that made me realize the true extent of how much fun scouting can be. Staying at a camp for one week with no contact with the outside world and spending that time with fellow scouts and friends allows people to realize the connection they can feel within nature. During this summer camp, I was Star rank, two ranks away from Eagle.
2025 Update: I am now Life rank, the second-highest rank for a scout in BSA. I’ve started working on my Eagle Project, and I hope it benefits my community.
2025 Camp Fire Mountain:
2025: Helped support a fellow scout with their Eagle Project. Constructed new stairs and a community bench for a local church.
2026: New Leadership position! I am now SPL of my troop!
SPL (Senior Patrol Leader) is the highest leadership position a Scout can earn in his troop. Through an election process, my troop voted me to be SPL. SPL has a variety of responsibilities, primarily representing the troop at activities and helping to run meetings and campouts alongside the adult Scoutmasters. I am glad to be representing my troop as SPL through the school year and at Summer Camps!
2026: Summer camp at Melita Island
This was my first summer camp as SPL. I had to lead the troop through multiple requirements for the “Honor Troop” award, a ribbon we get to put on our troop flag for going above and beyond at a summer camp. We were able to get Honor Troop, which was an amazing experience.
