How many Eagle Scouts :)

[tanguma26]

I would like to know how many eagle scouts are actually in FIRST robotics and how FIRST has helped them accomplish them to obtain the rank of eagle.

I am an Eagle Scout and I am a senior and also hold the equibalent rank of Eagle in Mexico so please tell your story

You will find that there are quite a few.

I actually wasn't a part of FRC until after earning my Eagle, but there is quite a bit of overlap in the goals and ideals of both programs and in the type of person it takes to be successful in them.

I'm an eagle scout

The leadership skills that I have gained from robotics definitely helped me with my Eagle Scout project. Also, my team helped me with my Eagle Scout Project

Our team has 1 member who is in the process of finishing his eagle project, as well as 3 eagles that graduated last year, and about as many in years before that. In our town, robotics is kind of synonymous with FIRST, oddly enough. As it stands right now, we have 3 juniors, 4 sophomores, and about 5 freshman who are on the team and also Life rank, working on their Eagle, myself being one of the sophomores.

1 here. One of the former students and current mentors on 330 is an Eagle as well.

I am an Eagle Scout. Robotics mentors provided me and the other scouts we have on the team with letters of reccomendation. We had about four in the last two years and many more who have graduated. I think FIRST and Boy Scouts are reaching for the same goal, to improve our nation's future.
Go scouts and FIRST!

[Chris is me]

I'd have at least attempted if I was eligible. I guess that's not saying much...

I am one of them

Eagle as of 10/26/2006 (Court of Honor date)

I am one, and at least one mentor is, also i think one student might also be, not sure though.

Side question, how many are in the Tribe of Mic-o-Say?
I am a Firebuilder in the tribe.

I'm also an Eagle Scout :-)

[Akash Rastogi]

In our history we have graduated at least 9 or 10 eagle scouts, that I know of (and that's only as far back as 06). There are definitely more from our earlier years.

We are very proud of our students and alumni for this as our team has very close ties to Boy Scouts.

team 1922 has two. i'm one of them. i don't think i have let scouts and robotics affect each other directly but i'm sure they have.

I am an Eagle Scout, but I was before I joined FIRST. Skills from scouts have definitely helped in FIRST though.
