[Bobwhite Blather] A glimpse of our future

[Bobwhite Blather Scouting Blog]

Bobwhite Blather has posted a new item, 'A glimpse of our future'

Earlier this week, our troop welcomed our newest Eagle Scout, joining two others
whose boards of review I participated in last week. The three new Eagles brings
our troop's total to 55 over its thirty years of operation.

Eagle Scout is the pinnacle of the advancement climb in Boy Scouting, but it's
not the actual goal. In fact, the expectation is that every Scout should reach
First Class. Baden-Powell's original advancement ended there, and the additional
ranks were added by the Boy Scouts of America in the years following its
founding.

To look at the big picture, the mission and aims of the BSA doesn't mention
attaining any ranks at all.
