I'm rebuilding a piece of my local American Legion to help out the Veterans, and as part of my project I need to do some fund raising, so here it is. I know times are tough NS, but if you guys can buy a member some skis, I'm sure you can throw me some extra PayPal change for the veterans...maybe. Read all about it on the Indiegogo page (sort of like kickstarter).

I'll definitely donate whenever paypal lets me add money to my account. Good luck dude, unfortunately I only made it to life but that sure beats what I was thinking of doing for my Eagle.

Bump for a fellow life trying to get his eagle! Just gotta do my board and have the ceremony.

Didn't know there were this many scouts/eagles on NS... we should make a cult. We should also make a Philmont cult

I'm also a Life Scout.... I actually don't know if I'm gonna make Eagle.

I'm such a procrastinator, I have like 4 more merit badges and the Eagle stuff, and the Eagle Board of Review seems like it's gonna be a pain in the ass.

I would donate brotha but I don't got a Pay-Pal !!

Hoping that every thing goes well on the project. I just got my Eagle Award this summer and it's seriously is one of the greatest accomplishments to reach. Not to mention having all that stress of aging out being lifted off my shoulders. I got all my paper work in ten days be for I turned 18. Ir is a ton of work getting there but you will never forget those experiences of Scouting and being with friends. This project looks very organized and the fact that you can reach out to people all over the country through your donation web-site is a sure plus that you are prepared to become among the ranks of Eagle. Dont forget to document as much as you can. Good luck!

Yes you can.

My father has been on 10+ BOR and you don't necessarily fail, but they tell you to study and reschedule another one for later.

He would always ask them to tie a bowline as he felt it was an important scout skill. More than half could not. As lame as it is, be sure you can do that. It's not a common thing for them to ask, but you would look like an idiot if you can't.
