![]() Eagle Quest offers opportunities to help young Scouts complete their Tenderfoot, Second Class, and First Class ranks. The following schedules intend to allow the Scouts to select only the requirements they need to finish the rank they are currently working on. These schedules are designed around the more difficult requirements and do not offer time for every requirement. The requirements not offered need to be completed within a Troop or can easily be done in a Troop setting. Many of the Scouts participating in the Eagle Quest program will need the guidance of their Leaders to remind them of their schedule and of any necessary items they might need. The Eagle Quest schedule runs all day long to make it possible for Scout to advance a full rank during their stay at camp. It is not recommended that Scouts participating in Eagle Quest take merit badges. If a Scout would like to take a merit badge, we recommend they choose Basketry or Fingerprinting to complete during their free time (3:30-5:30 pm). However, if a Scout only needs help on a few requirements, they should sign up for merit badges and come to Eagle Quest during open instruction. Open instruction is a good way to make up missed requirements or to complete new ones. However, it is not a replacement for attendance at Eagle Quest. Some requirements like the cooking, the 5-mile hike, the 1-mile compass course, etc. cannot be completed during open instruction. Most requirements need a day of instruction and another for evaluation; therefore Scouts should not wait until Friday to start requirements. How to Sign-up
