Boy Scout Earns All 121 Merit Badges

For any of you who needs a role model here he is:
NEW YORK — A Long Island teenager has earned all 121 merit badges offered by the Boy Scouts of America. It’s an accomplishment the local arm of the organization calls “an almost unheard-of feat.”
Oceanside resident Shawn Goldsmith earned his final badge — for bugling — in time for his 18th birthday in November. He far surpassed the 21 badges required to achieve the elite rank of Eagle Scout.
He says he took about five years to earn his first 62 badges and then nearly doubled that number in a matter of months. He did it with the encouragement of his grandmother, who died shortly before he reached his goal.
The Binghamton University freshman was awarded his final badges on Dec. 19. He says he hopes to become a businessman and politician.

In case you were not aware Troop 48 has four who are Graduating from Jackson High School this week. All have already turned 18 and are no longer officially Scouts but are now Scouters. As Scouters they now are in the position to help the next generation of Scouts along the Scouting trail. As these new Scouters move on to the next phase of their life, be it more education or full time employment take a minute to wish Jaycee, Jeremy, Josh and Matt success in the future and that they live their life according to the Scout Oath and Law.
