That’s because the man who was the chair of my board of review said that, because there was a delay in someone from the advancement committee picking a date when he could show up, my review turned out to be a week past three months since my 18th birthday, and that if the review date wasn’t changed somebody would have to write ...

There’s a reason it’s called the “Death Zone.” At 29, 029 feet, the lack of oxygen atop Mount Everest seriously limits how well a person can function. Risks of fatigue, frostbite, and stress to the heart and brain skyrocket. It’s so dangerous at that altitude that climbers are cautioned to only linger for about 20 minutes before descending. In that brief time at the top of the world, Bruce Terry, Scoutmaster of Troop 181 in Gladwyne, Pa., was able to unfurl three flags: a custom flag thanking his family, a troop flag and a National Eagle Scout Association World Explorers ......

Scouting in big cities is all about providing more opportunities for youth to learn new skills and experience new things. For Albert Lopez of Troop 489 in Austin, TX, this is true for his troop and every troop in the Capitol Area Council. In big cities, many families don't have the opportunity to connect with the outdoors. Austin, in particular, is home to many families that are not only new to Scouting but new to the country. The Boy Scouts of America provides these families the opportunity to connect with one another, build friendships, and help prepare their children ......
