I was in Webelos but got kicked out for eating a Brownie!
But seriously I was a webelos and stuck with it through scouts until I turned 18. Never made Eagle though and I am still kicking myself today for not trying harder... but once I became a senior in high school, there just didn't seem to be enough time anymore. It became too hard to get alot of the merit badges.
I made it to the rank of Life Though. I still talk to my old scout master regularly though. I ran into him 5 or 6 years ago, he retired and now works part time in a fish store by my house. I stop in every 2 to 3 weeks to pick up fish food and shoot the shit.
Scouts was a good part of my life, and I just hope when my son reaches that age that he will be interested in it too, unlike my dad I plan to make the time to join in with him.
