How To Earn Tenderfoot Rank - Scouts BSA

Hey guys, Mac Guzman here. This video is how to earn Tenderfoot Rank in Scouts BSA (formerly known as Boy Scouts) It is the second rank out of the seven ranks in Scouting.
This video covers how to rank up fast. The Tenderfoot rank is the beginning of basic scout skills that provide a glance into the types of skills to learn. A Scout's career takes a turn as he or she learns responsibility, independence, and planning. Learning new skills is always a fun challenge, and understanding what is expected of you is a key part in your scouting career.
Tips for earning the rank
- Use the Scout Handbook to your advantage. Utilize it to learn new skills and to understand new material
- Don't isolate yourself, work with others and have fun when accomplishing objectives
- Get used to planning events and keeping a calender
- Keep your logs updated and accurate
- Use a binder/folder to organize everything
- Stay consistent in your troop and be active in working on requirements

Eagle Scout Mac Guzman nice

[@MacGuzman]

@@malagu4ever856 thanks👍

[@bookworm4life836]

Make a Den Chief video. I still do not know what that means.

[@PoeTheSquash]

Are you doing 2nd Class Rank next?

[@MariaGuzman]

Cool video bro 👍

[@karenrich9092]

This was a well explained video. I agree with teamwork on cooking because as a family, I always cleaned up because I wasn't comfortable with the propane stove. Now, I'm stuck because I won't be able to use this stove at home in case of a power outage. I remember watching my son teach his sister to put up a tent; what a job to keep quiet and let him do it! Finally, I think carrying a small sewing kit for mending your socks is a good way to prevent blisters when hiking.

[@EagleScoutMacGuzman]

Great points. Thank you for watching, Karen.

[@malagu4ever856]

You are doing so well in Scouts. You always help other Scouts too.👍

Thanks so much! I'm doing my scoutmaster conference for Tenderfoot soon, this was a great review!

[@EagleScoutMacGuzman]

I am glad to help. Remember that Tenderfoot is the first rank to have a Board of Review. All the rest up to Eagle Scout have BOR. Don’t worry, it’s not a test, mostly the board member just ask question about what you like or don’t like. Be prepared to recite the Oath, Law, and Outdoor Code.

[@Kinetic_Toast]

What’s up Scouter peeps! I remember when I earned my Tenderfoot. The 30-day fitness tracker was the longest part,

[@EagleScoutMacGuzman]

@KineticToast we were putting down mulch around the bushes. My dad had sone good footage of use working but I did not want to bother him. So I used the shot if me driving the golf cart 👍

[@lord_toker]

@Macguzman is the BSA doing anything about the Coronavirus outbreak, i know that my troop are only preparing a emergency kit at home, i am just worrying that this may affect my scouting, know anything about preparing for it? Thanks

[@EagleScoutMacGuzman]

Kami Tsukiya I received this email from BSA: “... As is our practice in Scouting, our efforts are focused on preparation and responsiveness guided by official health organizations, including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization. Remaining vigilant in hand hygiene and social distancing are some of the most important practices, especially in communities where there is confirmed community spread of the virus. The CDC offers helpful aids to guide these efforts, including: Keeping Workplaces, Homes, Schools and Commercial Establishments Safe Framework for Mitigation Since the impact of the virus varies greatly by community, each council is working closely with their local health department to evaluate the situation and make decisions in the best interest of their members, volunteers, and employees. Please refer questions about local events, meetings, and activities to your council, as they are best positioned to provide those answers. We are taking similar steps as a national organization as we evaluate how to best navigate the current situation with safety being our top priority. We are currently evaluating critical events and travel through the next six weeks, and we will continue to evaluate the situation and update you about any decisions impacting future events, including the National Annual Meeting and activities at our high adventure bases....”

[@EagleScoutMacGuzman]

Kami Tsukiya I recieved this email from our BSA Camp: “For the next 30 days, between March 13 and April 15, the following measures are being taken by the Central Florida Council: Camp La-No-Che and other Council Camp Properties: At this time the Camps remain open for unit camping and small group activities. No more than 250 total participants may be in attendance at Camp La-No-Che. Large group youth activities (activities of 250 or more) are to be immediately postponed and rescheduled. Event leaders will communicate rescheduled dates for the activities at a later time. All Units and small group activity leaders are required to implement the BSA Pre-Event Medical Screening Checklist (CLICK HERE). Council Ranger Staff are doing extra cleaning and sanitizing in restrooms and public spaces at the Camp. While hand washing stations and supplies are provided throughout camp, unit and activity leaders are encouraged to bring their own supplies and sanitizer as well. District and Council Activities Large group youth activities (250 or more planned attendees/staff) scheduled between now and April 15 are to be postponed and rescheduled. Additional cancellations/postponements will be assessed through an ongoing process at the Council level. Detailed announcements for each activity/event scheduled within the affected time period (March 15 - April 15) will be sent through separate communications starting Monday, March 15. Small group youth activities/camps (under 250) and are required to implement the BSA Pre-Event Medical Screening Checklist. Regular weekly Unit Meetings/Outings Based on meeting patterns, location, and meeting space consideration, each chartered partner should locally determine any potential change in regular meetings. The Central Florida Council suggests units use the BSA Pre-Event Medical Screening Checklist for youth-parent activities; and, prior to departing for unit overnight campouts and field trips.”

[@EagleScoutMacGuzman]

Kami Tsukiya I received this from my Troop Charter Org Rep: “-As of right now [Charter Org] is going to continue to function and have church services. This is of course a fluid situation and can change at any time. -It is up to each individual Patrol and Scout if they want to continue meeting. Meeting in small groups is fine, but at this point I would recommend canceling larger group meetings until school is back in session. -Campouts and meetings will be suspended until school is back in session [on Mar 30th].”

[@kamitsukiya9587]

Eagle Scout Mac Guzman, Thank you for the information!

[@EagleScoutMacGuzman]

You are welcome. Maybe I can make a video with the official emails from BSA National and the Central Florida Council. Do you think it would help or are people too scared right now?

[@rosey1306]

@@Videocontentcreator987 great job. Keep working, keep learning. and have fun.

[@mohammed.baig.]

I'm a tenderfoot and I am only in 9th grade. My dad wants me to be an eagle by 11th grade. Do you think it is possible?

[@EagleScoutMacGuzman]

It’s possible but will take a lot of work. Up to First Class there are a lot of camping requirements. After that there are time constraints and merit badges: Star (4 months, 6 MBs), Life (6 months, 5 MBs), Eagle (6 months, 21 MBs). And then you have the Eagle Project which has taken me five months.

[@mohammed.baig.]

@@EagleScoutMacGuzman Ok as long as I can get it done before I start applying to colleges I think I should be fine for now hopefully

[@EagleScoutMacGuzman]

Mohammed how are you progressing in Scouts?

[@mohammed.baig.]

@@EagleScoutMacGuzman i’m close to finishing 1st class. i found resources that will allow me to grind all of my merit badges online. i will be trying to finish at least 3 merit badges during the winter break. wish me luck.

[@EagleScoutMacGuzman]

Mohammed B. congrats and going from Tenderfoot to 1st Class in a year! Good luck with the merit badges. I completed a few online. Make sure you are in good communication with your councelor and that they receive all your requirements inputs. I had a couple partials that I had to finish with another MBC. I have a 37 videos just on Merit Badges that might help you kzbin.info/aero/PLs6bX4-Oyip6IJFHsFNIM54LzLmduWWp_
