Eagle tips

Get a seperate binder to keep all your Eagle papers in.

***Keep track of every minute spent working on the Eagle project. If you don't your paper work will take twice as long to do as you try to remember every time you talked to someone and every time you went to the store to get supplies. Just keep track!

On your Eagle packet, you will have to be able to tell how much time you spent planning, so keep track of that.
You will have to be able to tell how much time you spent doing the project, so keep track. (Once you have the Eagle Project approval from the Distict Board, everything moves to the "doing the project" column.

You will have to be able to tell how much time others spent on planning, such as mom driving you to and from visits with the school Principal or City Manager or whoever. The principal's time signing his approval. The custodian telling you where to bury pipes or whatever. So keep track!

You will have to tell how much time others spent carrying out the project. This means every person that comes to help you do it. Write down each name and how long he was there.

Write a general description of what you did each day. You will need it later for the General Write-up.

You will need a "brag sheet." We titled it as "Brag Sheet."
    Everything from what awards were achieved in cub scouts or
    Elementary school to award in sports or music or art. And everything
    relating to being a leader or leadership position, such as Deacon's secretary.

You will need a Goals Sheet.
    Write everything from getting a 4.0 next quarter
    graduating
     going to the prom
    getting married
    going to college
    going on a mission
    going to the moon

***The goal sheet can be done way in advance of the Eagle project, and it will save you time when you are doing the paperwork.
