[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If DS is 15 then can he still join the Eagle Scout?[/quote] Absolutely, he can. But he won’t have enough time to become Eagle Scout. If that’s not his goal, there are still a lot of fun. [/quote] Any way to speed up the process? [/quote] No. There are minimum time requirements once a Scout reaches 1st Class as far as their leadership positions. The Eagle requirements, outside of the final Board of Review, must be completed no later than the day before the Scout's 18th birthday. I think I saw one kid do it in about 3.5 years and he was Highly Motivated, including back-to-back weeks at scout camp over the summer to make the most of the merit badges. I believe he also had a summer birthday, so a bit more time than his peers with birthdays in the winter or spring. I may be wrong about the birthday, though. I'm the advancement chair for our troop and an Eagle parent. [/quote]
