Congratulations go out to Nate Pendergraft Dan Beards’ and Fort Hamilton’s newest Eagle Scout. Nate completed his board of review on 9/19/2011 . Nate led his team of volunteers for 216 hours rebuilding the third tree house at Camp Timberhill. Another fine example of a great Eagle project and a Scout who knew he was going for Eagle from the start. Nate has held every major leadership role in his troop and earned 39 merit badges.

The Path To Eagle

The path to Eagle is a great learning tool for any Scout. While completing the requirements of the Eagle Rank, the Scout applies the many skills that he has learned on his path the Eagle. In completing his Eagle Project he brings all of those skills together to become a project manager. Many people will help guide and coach him through this process but ultimately the requirements are his to complete. Those helping the Scout must take care to let the Scout perform his tasks.
