Boy Scout Board of Review


Tonight I had the honor of sitting on my first Board of Review. It was for a young man who had fulfilled all the requirements for the rank of Tenderfoot. The board of review is an interview process that looks at how much the Scout can apply what he has learned in Boy Scouts to his every day life, what his plans are for his future in Scouting and how he is doing in life in general. We ended the interview with words of encouragement and helped him think about ways to advance to his next rank. It is very much like the interview process in Pageants. The skill of interviewing will take this young man far in life. In case you were wondering, yes, he passed with flying colors. Congratulations to another boy one step closer to the rank of Eagle.
