Through Girl Scouts, these young girls are taught normative norms of girlhood, a blueprint for being a “normal” girl. “Girl Scouting is for YOU and every girl, everywhere! Girl Scouts of today become [the] leaders of tomorrow. Lead the life you always imagined!

I started attending Fork Union Military Academy in the sixth grade and have stayed throughout my entire high school career. To me, this in itself is a large accomplishment and is something I am very proud of. Every cadet goes through many ups and downs, I know in my seven years I have seen more than my fair share of trouble, but like my father always said, it 's not how you fall, but how you pick yourself back up. I made sure to do everything I could to show those around me, and to prove to myself, that I could pick myself up and accomplish anything. I faced and continue to face many different challenges in my daily life, those that every teenager faces, and also those that have been presented to me because of the kind of environment I placed myself in.

My journey through Scouting began at the age of seven and I am proud to say that it still continues today. Scouting has unquestionably had a tremendous and lasting influence on life and development. As I progressed through the ranks and challenges, I have experienced and learned things that other kids may never have the opportunity to. These experiences, such as the advancement of survival skills, problem solving, and teamwork, all mean a great deal to me. However, the most important qualities I have received from Scouts are a combination of all these experiences.
I gave back to my scouting community by taking the place of the older scouts and help lead the troop, guiding the younger scouts on their journeys to Eagle in the same manner as the older scout did with me. I also learned about the importance of volunteer work. I volunteer at the public library, and would help out in the afterschool “Math Lab”, tutoring students struggling with understanding what they were learning in their math classes.

At the age of seven, my mother registered me with the Boy Scouts of America. Years ago, I had no idea what that involved. All I knew is that once a week, I would hang out with a group of guys and do an activity with them. Progressively, I learned more about Scouting and what it actually focused on. I began as a Cub Scout, where I went on camping trips, hikes, and attended Cub Scout Day Camp.
