Tyler Beckwith built a Gaga Ball pit at Camp Anderson for his Eagle Scout Project.
Tyler Beckwith is a junior and is the youngest of these four to earn the title Eagle Scout. He has been a scout for 10 years and has a background peppered with accomplishments.
In Cub Scouts, Beckwith was awarded the arrow of life, which is the highest award available. He also joined the Order of the Arrow, the honor society of scouts.
For his Eagle Scout project, Beckwith chose to add some athletics to their camp.
“I built a gaga ball pit at Camp Anderson,” said Beckwith.
Gaga ball is a popular game played at camps across the United States, and Beckwith thought it would be a great addition to their camp.
“I chose this project because it added more activities to do at the camp,” said Beckwith.
Scouts offers the chance to make great memories and gain new experiences. Beckwith shares his favorite memory.
“I had the chance to learn how to drive a motorboat on the Chesapeake Bay,” said Beckwith.
Having the title of Eagle Scout gives a new meaning to being a scout. The responsibilities are greater and you become a mentor for younger scouts.
According to Beckwith, “[Scouts] are to be leaders every day and help their younger scouts.”
