Following the latest news from around the Cascade Pacific Council, you'll meet Aaron Abrahamsen, a CPC Eagle Scout who has not only earned our highest rank but also EVERY single merit badge on the docket for a total of 138.

Aaron has also earned the prestigious National Medal for Outdoor Achievement. This medal was established in 2010 as the "highest recognition a Scout can earn for exemplary achievement, experience and skill in multiple areas of outdoor endeavor." To date, only about 300 Scouts have completed this achievement. 

Following this week's newscast, the CPC Scouting Expedition welcomes Brett Stoffel of Outdoor Safe and Emergency Response International with his lifesaving tips, tricks and tools to survive in the great outdoors.

Brett’s background includes being an aircraft commander of a B52 and a B2 mission commander. He’s been a USAF instructor and managed Combat Search and Rescue and SERE programs.
