This weekend, Walker P. from Troop 13 in St. Cloud, Minnesota, will attend his own #EagleScout Court of Honor.
 
However, Walker’s #Scouting story begins long before he spent over 120 hours building six bat houses (that house 1,200-1,800 bats, total) for his school.
 
Before he was elected to the Order of the Arrow (oa.scouting) – and before he earned four palms, attended the 2023 natjamboree, climbed eight peaks at philmontscoutranch and served as Senior Patrol Leader of his troop – Walker was a #CubScout.
 
Walker’s parents got him involved in Scouting when he was in first grade – and so began his #ScoutingAmerica adventure. After crossing over from thecubscouts to #ScoutsBSA, Walker invested time in volunteering, camping and rank advancement. The memories he has made prove invaluable, and Scouting helped shape who Walker is, today.
 
“Through Scouts I have become lifeguard certified, CPR certified, first aid trained and licensed to operate motorized watercraft by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources,” Walker says.
 
As Walker gears up for his third summer on staff at manypointcamp (and first summer as Assistant Camp Director and Aquatics Director), we congratulate him on achieving the rank of Eagle Scout. More than this, alone, we thank him for giving back to Scouting, the great outdoors and his local community.
 
Walker reminds us that Scouting can truly be a lifelong adventure. He challenges us to remain vigilant in our pursuit of safety and he inspires us to reach more youth, today.
 
Thank you, Walker, for all the good you have done through Scouting – we cannot wait to see what you will accomplish next!
