<"Please see my posts that follow and understand that "I" understand that an Eagle Scout is not a 10 year old.

Watering Dogs at the Park is fine for a Cub Scout, 4H or a Children's Church Bible Study Group.

His task (the water for dogs) is an improvement of a facility and worthy of comment, little else. I doubt it if there were 30 or 40 other prospective Eagle Scouts doing anything but ribbing him about it.">

I did read your post and I replied to it. If you read the entire article - it's pretty clear that water for dogs is not all that he's doing.

There is other renovation going on and things being repaired in that park as part of his project. The park will be a wonderful place for people and their pets when it is done. Even the city is helping with the funds that are needed.

Wish I could contact those 30 or 40 prospective Eagle Scouts and would bet you that they are not ribbing him about it. Especially any that have a pet.

Or if you are passing out Merit Badges, out of that 30 or 40 there has to be at least 1 Eddie Haskel.

Not trying to pick a fight, just saying that an Eagle Scout would probably appreciate a tougher battle or a little more of a challenge. A gift of Merit has little worth if unearned, it's just a gift, John Kerry would appreciate it and brag about it but he has no Character, Scouting was all about Character when I was involved, but maybe things have changed in the last 40 years.
