Figured I would bump this old thread. My twin sons both passed their Eagle Scout board of review on Tuesday evening. As it turns out, they did end up like their Dad, squeaking in the requirements before their 18th birthday. School, sports, jobs get in the way. All's well that ends well.

Now it's on to the college applications! I'm stepping down as Scoutmaster at the end of the year too, maybe I'll finally be able to work on the "honey do" list.

My son is 15 and a Life Scout. And I stepped up to be the Committee Chair. It would seem logical that if I fish less, I can be the Chair. Trouble is, nothing from almost nothing doesn't equal a lot more free time!

Congratulations....doesn't matter when they make it as long as they make it.

at least they stayed away from the 3 liquids that keep a boy from making eagle....Gasoline, Alcohol, and Perfume. (That was one of my Favorite Earl Collin's lines)
