Eagle in 1993. It is the personal achievement that I am most proud of (which might be obvious given my avatar). I built a fence around a playground that was built in the middle of an intersection. (hard to describe, but there was an "island" in the middle of the intersection, and the builders decided that kids did not need a fence to protect them while playing there???)

My brother is also an Eagle, earned in 1989.

I remember Philmont as one of the best summer camps i attended. We also went to Peaceful Valley, and did multiple high adventure trips (50 mile backpack trips, 150 mile canoe trips, ...).

I also was a foreign exchange student to Australia, and became invovled in the scouting down under. Very rewarding experience.
