Eagle Scout Trail


An Eagle Scout you were destined to be, you joined the Cub Scouts to see what you could see.  Tiger, Bear, Webelo, to other scouts

you were a friend, but when you reached the end of Cub Scouting, you knew that was not the end.  

The Boy Scouts were what you saw, you learned the Scout Oath and Law.  Camping, hiking, new adventures were now here, it was 

then and there the trail to Eagle Scout suddenly appeared.

You began that long trail, despite what others said, the Eagle Scout rank was in front of you, it was just up ahead.  You didn't

mind the work, for you were having too much fun, and today you have achieved what few have ever done.  The Eagle 

Scout trail is over and you know what it was all about, for the Cub Scout from long ago is now an Eagle Scout.
