was in Cub Scouts when I was a young child; there were lots of fun activities we did and many trips we went on. I have many great memories of those years, but there was a specific trip that will always be in my memory, one that really impacted my life and changed my personal definition of a hero. It was the brink of dawn on a cold November day in the Georgia Mountains. The sky was covered with a blanket of clouds, not allowing the sun to warm the frigid water in the river.

was a ordinary day for most, but not for me. For me it was the first step to becoming a Eagle. June ninth was my first day of Cub Scouts. At five thirty in the afternoon, me and my dad finished eating dinner I went back to my room to put on my freshly dry cleaned uniform, which gave me a feeling of joy. Me and my dad both got into the car and off we went to my first Cub Scout Meeting. The meetings were held a Sandburg Elementary and I was joining Troop 1209. At the meeting, I was introduced to the
to win!” Charlie's mom said. “Mom, we have been here all day long!” Charlie is a cub scout. Not because he wanted to be one, but because he has to be one. Charlies Mom always says “Every boy in our family has been a boy scout doesn’t matter if he wanted to or not, it’s a tradition.” Charlie has been hearing this his whole entire life, even when Charlie was in diapers his mom would dress him up like a cub scout. Charlies mom loves traditions and from any one else’s point of view it would be annoying
they're not the neglected, inactive children who grow up to be abusive towards animals and people. That is why I've decided that my work with children is far from over. The children who truly need my help cannot be found in a youth group or a Cub Scout pack. How I am going to reach these children, I do not yet know. I am fortunate to have the drive, vision and experience I've gained so far to help me along the way.

Lifespan Development Going back forty-five years is not an easy task to complete because I can’t remember some of the finer details of my childhood.

activity that has stuck with me more than any other was Boy Scouts. I started scouts when I was 8 years old; I had no idea what I was getting into. I remember walking into the Saint Stevens, the church where the troop held their meetings, for the first time and seeing all of the other cub scouts. I was very nervous and wanted to make a good impression on the other kids. Due to my age I was put into the rank of wolf, the second lowest rank in cub scouts. We were a group of 16 kids. I don’t know how anyone

the school system does not have the time or resources to do this task alone. In the Webelos Scout Book the Scouting Oath reads: On my honor I will do my best To do my duty to God and my country And to obey the Scout Law; To help other people at all times; To keep myself physically strong, Mentally awake, and morally straight.

In order to understand the how the Boy Scouts of America, or BSA, has changed, it is important to understand the purpose of the BSA. The common misconception of what Scouting looks like, typically sets an image of young boys building a fire and tying knots while camping. This is not entirely untrue, the BSA has a large connection to the outdoors, and many skills are necessary for advancement within the organization. There is no other program or group that can match the BSA. From lessons in leadership

"You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view... until you climb into his skin and walk around in it." Who are the people Scout comes to understand as a result of following Atticus' advice?

To Kill A Mockingbird: Influences on Scout from Interactions w/ Others Growing up in Maycomb, Southern Alabama in the 1930s was not an easy thing. Amid a town of prejudice and racism, stood a lone house where equality and respect for all gleamed like a shining star amid an empty space. The house of Atticus Finch was that shining star.

novel progresses. Early in the novel, Scout illustrates the courage she embodies. On her first day of school, Scout acts as an ambassador for the entire class. She takes the duty of informing Miss Caroline of Walter Cunningham's situation. Miss Caroline had just scolded Scout for her ability to read, however, Scout still feels the classes' need for leadership. Most children at her age would fear speaking to the teacher is such a bold fashion. Scout shows advanced maturity for her age, and

He worked as a postmaster and a scoutmaster for Boy Scouts, and in both he was asked to resign for drinking, and poor work. He dropped out of both high school and college in favor of partying, but during his stay in college, Faulkner was able to create many short stories and poems which were featured in the
Mockingbird ,by Harper Lee, Scout, the main character, matures as the book continues. Slowly but surely, Scout learns to control her explosive temper, to refrain from fistfights, and to respect Calpurnia, their maid, and to really learn her value to the family. Scout simply changes because she matures, and she also changes because Atticus, her father, asks her to. In the early chapters of the book, Scout picks fights at the slightest provocation. One example of this is when Scout beats up Walter Cunningham
