Scouting’s Bottom Line
What happens to a Scout? For every 100 boys who join Scouting, records indicate that.....
• Rarely will one be brought before the juvenile court system
• 4 will become Eagle Scouts
• 17 will become future Scout volunteers
• 12 will have their first contact with a church
• 1 will enter the clergy
• 5 will earn their church award
• 18 will develop a hobby that will last through their adult life
• 8 will enter a career that was learned through the merit badge system
• 1 will use his Scouting skills to save his own life
• 1 will use his Scouting skills to save the life of another
Scouting’s alumni record is equally impressive. A nation-wide survey of high schools revealed the following…..
• 85% of student council presidents were Scouts
• 89% of senior class presidents were Scouts
• 80% of junior class presidents were Scouts
• 75% of school publication editors were Scouts
• 71% of football captains were Scouts
Scouts also account for…..
• 64% of Air Force Academy graduates
• 68% of West Point graduates
• 70% of Annapolis graduates
• 72% of Rhodes Scholars
• 85% of FBI agents
• 26 of the first 29 Astronauts
