Link to Michael's Pictures

Michael was born on October 22, 1997 in Idaho Falls, Idaho.  He attended Westside Elementary, and joined Pack 132 as a Tiger Cub and continued in Pack 132 for 5 years.  His father, Elliot , Pete Nawrocki and Bob Boozer were his leaders.  One of Michael’s favorite Cub Scout activities was the annual Pinewood Derby.  During his second year in Webelos, Michael and his father attended Troop 6’s Green Canyon campout in November 2008.  Shortly afterwards, he bridged over to Troop 6 in December 2008 (in 5th grade), with Cheryl Siedelmann as Scoutmaster.

Michael participated in many Troop 6 activities including several Winterees, snow caving, a reasonable amount of time spent at the Siedelmann cabin, summer camps, hikes and much more.  Michael has served as Assistant Patrol Leader, Patrol Leader, Assistant Senior Patrol Leader, Chaplain’s Aide, and Scribe.

Michael’s Eagle Project was to take out an old one-foot high safety fence at the Desert Eagles Model Airplane Flying Club (DEMAFC), and replace it with a new 4-foot high orange snow fence with chain link fence posts.   This required developing dimensioned drawings, procurement of materials, organizing and leading the work parties, taking out the old fence, digging post holes and setting the fence posts in concrete, and installing the new fence.   Nine people spent 193 hours on the project.

Michael is a member of the Skyline Chess Club and is on the Skyline Debate Team.   He enjoys doing outdoor activities with his family – camping, skiing, hiking, hunting, competitive shooting, and fishing.  In 2010, Michael drew on the Tex Creek youth elk hunt.   Michael and his father spent many weekends of chasing wapiti and discovering new country.  On the last weekend of the hunt, Michael spotted a cow elk hiding under a juniper and killed it with a single shot.  

In July 2011, Michael and his father dove down to Ft. Stockton, TX for Michael to compete in the International Handgun Metallic Silhouette Association annual International shooting match.  Michael won the High Junior award.  This past summer, Michael became proficient in rowing a drift boat down the South Fork while his father fished.  Michael also enjoys building and flying radio controlled model aircraft with the DEMAFC and is looking forward to pylon races this summer.

SPL: The Master of Ceremonies for this evening's Court of Honor is Cheryl Siedelmann, Committee Chairman of Troop 6.

MC:  I, William O'Steen, on behalf of the National Council, Boy Scouts of America, now call this National Court of Honor to order.

MC:   To earn the higher rank in Scouting, a young man has to spend a great deal of time and effort.  Therefore the occasion which recognizes his accomplishments is very special.

MC:  When a boy becomes a scout, there should be instilled within him something that we call the "Scouting Spirit."  This single lighted candle represents that spirit. 

[HOLD UP THE LIT CANDLE] As the law is echoed, each candle is lit by the ASPL.

Because the scouting spirit embodies the fine principles of the Scout Oath and Law, it becomes a shining beacon of inspiration.  Alone this light may be feeble, but when multiplied by the more than four million youth in Scouting, it can become very powerful indeed.

MC:  The Senior Patrol Leader of Troop 6 will now present the Scout Law:  

SPL:  A Scout is Trustworthy.

Echo:  A Scout tells the truth. He is honest, and he keeps his promises. People can depend on him.

SPL:  A Scout is Loyal.

Echo:  A Scout is true to his family, friends, Scout leaders, school, and nation.

SPL:  A Scout is Helpful.

Echo:  A Scout cares about other people. He willingly volunteers to help others without expecting payment or reward.

SPL: A Scout is Friendly.

SPL:  A Scout is Kind.

Echo:  A Scout knows there is strength in being gentle.  He treats others as he wants to be treated.  Without good reason, he does not harm or kill any living thing.

SPL:  A Scout is Obedient.

Echo:  A Scout follows the rules of his family, school, and troop.  He obeys the laws of his community and country.  If he thinks these rules and laws are unfair, he tries to have them changed in an orderly manner rather than disobeying them.

SPL:  A Scout is Cheerful.

  24. 2012 - Michael went on the “epic” snow caving outing in February.  It was already windy and blowing in Idaho Falls when Troop 6 met at the church on Saturday – but off they went.  The Scouts headed to Pine Creek Pass first, initially going by way of Swan Valley, where the snow and wind made for white-out conditions,  They turned around at Heise, then went to Plan B – traveling to Pine Creek Pass via the Rexburg route.  The older Scouts (Michael, Doug, Austin) with their snowshoes and sleds made it to the cornice area, where it was even windier.  The younger Scouts were not making much progress and conditions were getting worse.   
  25. Robin rode his snowmobile to retrieve the older boys, and the Scouts went to Plan C – go to Cheryl’s cabin.  On the way to Cheryl’s, they stopped for ice cream in Victor.  Various roads were closed and being closed as they drove.  There was a quinzee already built at Cheryl’s cabin; some of the Scouts enlarged it and slept in it; others slept outside in tents in an area protected from the wind by the cabin.  
  26. The Scouts completed leader training and year planning; played King of the (snow) Hill, and stopped at the Rainey Creek store on the drive home Sunday for – you guessed it – ice cream.  
  27. Michael went on the Ogden museums campout in March.  Robin was sitting in a camp chair “basking in the sun” at Trinity while waiting for the Scouts to arrive – very different from February’s outing.  
  28. In addition to touring the museums, the Scouts were entertained by an enraged wild tom turkey that chased Scouts around the campground on Sunday.  
  29. Michael worked on paperwork for his Eagle Scout project during June and July – and the work began in August.  He still attended troop meetings and helped with games.
  30. It is always good to see Scouts doing manual labor of fence post digging and pouring concrete.  
  31. Michael and Doug mix concrete, His project wast to remove and replace a fence at the RC field.
  32. Elliot helps tighten the snow fence
  33. Doug and Michael inspect it
  34. Lots of people helped but these guys put on the finishing touches
  35. Michael has enjoyed being in Troop 6, especially the epic outings and the friends he has made by being a member of the troop.

The Challenge Ceremony

MC: We come now to that part of our court of honor where we are to give recognition to the candidate for the rank of Eagle Scout.

SPL: Would the Troop 6 Honor Guard escort the candidate, Michael Sussman to the podium.

(wait while this happens)

MC: Awarding the Eagle Badge of rank is an important and serious matter. It is the goal toward which Michael Sussman has been working for seven years. It is the culmination of effort by his parents and Scout Leaders. It is an occasion for pride and for joy, but, it is also a time for serious contemplation.

The Eagle Badge of rank is the highest and most coveted award in all of Scouting, and it is the last major step in the advancement program. If at this point, Scouting has not achieved its purpose of building character--then it probably never shall. These thoughts, which are the basic code of Scouting, are well summed up in the pledge that is taken by every Scout in the council upon advancement to Eagle rank.

Are you willing to adopt the Eagle Pledge?

Michael: I am.

(First, A Life Scout in the audience interrupts.)

LIFE SCOUT: Stop! I challenge the right of this Scout to be awarded the rank of Eagle.

MC: Who are you and by what right do you challenge?

LIFE SCOUT: I am a Life Scout, and my esteem for the Eagle rank gives me the right to so challenge.

MC: On what grounds do you challenge?

LIFE SCOUT: Has Michael achieved the requirements in Scoutcraft and Life Interest?

ADULT LEADER (you may ad-lib): His application was verified, and indicates that he has satisfactorily completed the required 21 merit badges in the various fields of endeavor.  Are you satisfied Life Scout?

LIFE SCOUT: I am.


(Second, A Tenderfoot Scout in the audience interrupts.)

TENDERFOOT SCOUT: I, too, challenge the right of this Scout to be awarded the rank of Eagle

MC:   Who are you and by what right do you challenge?

TENDERFOOT SCOUT: I am a Tenderfoot Scout, and the respect that I have for the uniform that I wear gives me the right to so challenge.

MC:  On what grounds do you challenge?

TENDERFOOT SCOUT: Does his Scoutmaster certify that Michael has actively participated in Scouting in his troop. Has he demonstrated leadership, and done his best to help in his home, school, synagogue, and community?

HARLAN ( You may ad-lib):  As Scoutmaster of Troop 6, I certify that for more than 6 months since attaining the Life rank, Michael has held leadership positions in his troop. Also, he has been active in school, synagogue, and community activities.

MC: Are you now satisfied?

TENDERFOOT SCOUT: I am.


(Third, An Eagle Scout in the audience interrupts.)

EAGLE SCOUT AARON SOLLE: I too challenge the right of this Scout to be awarded the rank of Eagle.

MC: Who are you and by what right do you challenge?

EAGLE SCOUT: I am an Eagle Scout, and the pride that I have in this badge that I wear over my heart gives me the right to so challenge.

MC: On what grounds do you challenge?

EAGLE SCOUT: Has Michael demonstrated his Scouting Spirit?  Has his ability to live and act in accordance with the ideals of Scouting, as exemplified by the Scout Oath, Law, motto, and slogan been noted?

CHERYL ( You may ad-lib): As a member of the board that reviewed Michael’s record, I certify that, after investigation, interview, and examination. The board is of the opinion that Michael has demonstrated that he has held to the spirit of Scouting in his daily living. The board recommends his advancement to Eagle.

MC: Are you now satisfied, EAGLE SCOUT?

EAGLE SCOUT: I am still not satisfied. I believe that Michael should understand that the Eagle Rank is a big responsibility. As well as an honor, and I respectfully ask that Michael be informed of the responsibilities of an Eagle Scout before continuing further.

MC: Thank you, Eagle Scout Aaron Solle. I agree with your feelings.  The Adult leaders of Troop 6 will detail those responsibilities:

ADULT LEADER #1: The first responsibility of an Eagle Scout is to live with honor, which to an Eagle is sacred. Honor is the foundation of character -- it is what a person really is, down inside, not what someone may think he is. An Eagle will live so as to reflect credit upon his home, synagogue, school, friends, upon Scouting, and upon himself. May the white of your Eagle badge always remind you to live with honor.

ADULT LEADER: The second responsibility of an Eagle Scout is loyalty, for without loyalty, character lacks direction. An Eagle is loyal to his ideals. May the blue of your Eagle badge always remind you to be loyal.

ADULT LEADER: The third responsibility of an Eagle Scout is courage. Courage gives character force and strength. Trusting in God and with faith in his fellowman, the Eagle faces each day unafraid, and seeks his share of the world's work. May the red of your Eagle badge always remind you of courage.

ADULT LEADER: The final responsibility of an Eagle Scout is service. He extends a helping hand to those who toil up the Scouting trail he has completed, just as others helped him in his achievement of the Eagle rank. The habit of the daily Good Turn must take on new meaning and blossom forth into a life of service. The Eagle protects and defends the weak and the helpless. He aids and comforts the oppressed and the unfortunate. He upholds the rights of others while defending his own. His code of honor is based upon the belief that leadership is founded upon real service.

AARON (EAGLE SCOUT): Mr. O’Steen, if Michael is willing and eager to accept the mantle of responsibility, as well as the honor of the badge, then I will be satisfied and request that you proceed to administer the Eagle pledge.

MC: (To Eagle candidate) Are you ready and willing to accept these responsibilities and to adopt the Eagle pledge?

MICHAEL: I am.

MC:Aaron Solle will now deliver the Charge to Eagle.  Would all Eagle Scouts in the audience please join us in the Eagle’s nest at the podium.

AARON: Scouts, scouters, parents and guests please stand.

[Aaron moves to stand facing the candidate]

AARON: All Eagle Scouts, make the scout sign and repeat after me.

(Repeat the Eagle pledge)
