Welcome to the (best) nest, Soren and Bronson. These brothers have achieved so much - and it’s just the beginning!
National Eagle Scout Association
Please join me in congratulating Prairielands Council's newest Eagle Scouts, brothers Soren and Bronson D. from Troop 55 in Tolono chartered to the Tolono Methodist Men's Club.
Soren's service project involved cleaning up a trail in Sidney and adding markers.
Bronson's Eagle Scout service project was building a loading ramp for a local food pantry.
Congratulations Bronson and Soren on your achievement of becoming Eagle Scouts! We look forward to your future success and how you both will make this world better!

“Listen, and you will realize that we are made not from cells or from atoms. We are made from stories.”
We all have a story that changed our lives – now, it’s time to learn how to share those stories in a dynamic, engaging way!
With summer on the horizon, we invite all passionate volunteers, adventurers and leaders to join us from Sunday, July 12, through Saturday, July 18, at the Philmont Training Center.
The main course? Learning from subject matter and Scouting experts through “Story Telling: Inspire Others Through Photography and Stories.” Through hands-on experience, attendees will learn the mortivational storytelling and techniques for smartphone photography.
Learn more and sign up to attend, now: https://ow.ly/l3q650Z4Yum.
What does it mean to be courageous?
Tonight on the Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) flagship ministry and talk show “Praise,” Scouting America President, CEO and Chief Scout Executive, Roger Krone, joins Candace Lee and Eric Newman, authors of “George Goodwin, Dragon Slayer: A Scouting Legend.” The special segment centers on courage, character and the real-world lessons young people build through Scouting.
In the story, George and his fellow Scouts encounter a larger-than-life adventure at Big Mountain in West Virginia (a setting that draws inspiration from our high adventure base The Summit Bechtel Reserve). Yet, the heart of the book proves something Scouts experience every day: learning to lead, serve others, face challenges and Be Prepared.
Tune in to TBN at 7 and 10 p.m. CST or record the segment to watch later.
After you watch, tell us: What Scouting lesson has helped you or a young person in your life face a challenge with courage? Leave it in the comments or send your Scouting story our way at [email protected].

Scouting builds real-world confidence. Just ask Ava! 🇨🇭🚑
When a traveler was recently injured in Switzerland, Webelos Scout Ava from Pack 232 in Ramstein Germany didn’t hesitate. Using the exact first aid skills she learned in Cub Scouts, Ava stepped up to help when it mattered most. Her quick thinking, calm demeanor, and preparedness are a shining example of what it means to be a Scout!
