My TroopI am a part of BSA Troop 461. We meet every Tuesday at Epworth United Methodist Church. We do Merit Badges, Scout Skills, and Fun sessions (we would go to Sky Zone, Triangle Rock Climb, and other places like that). I have a lot of fun in this troop, and I don't plan to leave until I am forced out by age (after 18). I plan to become Eagle by my Senior Year in High School, but I have one more year after that to get it, as I will only be 17 when I graduate. How I let it connect to schoolAt the beginning of every meeting, we say the Pledge of Allegiance, Scout Oath, Scout Law, and Outdoor Code. I will only focus on the Scout Oath and Law. The Scout Oath goes as followed: "On my honor, I will do my best, to do my duty, to God and my country, to obey the scout law, to be helpful at all times, to keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight." I try to follow this oath not only at scout meetings, but in public. I eat healthily, get plenty of rest, and I try to help the world out the best I can. We also say the Scout Law which is: "A scout is Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean, and Reverent." We try to live these 12 adjectives as best we can, without trying to stop. I use these in school, whether it is in class, with friends, or with others. I strive to make myself the best person I could possibly be. The Game Design Merit BadgeTo obtain the all wanted Eagle Rank, I have to obtain 21 merit badges. 13 of those are listed as "Eagle Required," but that does not fit the bill. The Game Design Merit Badge is my way of getting work done outside of class to enhance my game design knowledge, while knocking out one of these 8 badges needed for Eagle.
