Boy Scouting and FIRST
This week at my Troops meeting, we had several Eagle Scouts come in to talk about how being an Eagle has affected them in life and all the positives it provides.
Now with build season so close, my mind was obviously on FRC. This however got me thinking about the similarities between the two programs Some things I thought about - Both programs rely heavily on teamwork and leadership to get a task done - Both require a lot of respect - Both require a lot of hard work, and you need to be very dedicated to get the robot built/ achieve Eagle. This also got me wondering, about Scouts in FIRST and visa versa. Some questions I have. 1. How many Boy Scouts do you see in your team/ the entire program? 2. As a mentor or team member, do you notice a difference in the work ethics, or manner in which the scouts on your team conduct themselves? 3. Do you think that them being scouts has helped them make great contributions to your team? To any Scoutmaster that may be on this forum: Do you see that those in your Troop who are in FIRST bring over certain values from FRC that contribute to your Troops Program? I believe that this would make an interesting conversation to have, and a great read. Last edited by dag0620 : 07-01-2011 at 18:29. |
