I am a bad writer and a bad speller so bear with me please. One of my goals is to graduate from high school. And one of the careers I want to go in to is theater and technical craft working sound so I am taking Theatre Technical Craft with Mr. Avila (He wrote one of my letters of recommendation for me). Working on tech crew has helped me gain leadership skills from telling actors what to do and other techies what to help with and stuff like that. Some activities at school that I do is helping with events and shows on techcrew.
Some activities outside school that I do are DND (Dungeons & Dragons) with friends, streaming on Twitch and recording for YouTube I run the channel by myself for both Twitch and YouTube.
After
graduation, I plan to get more education.
While being a theatre technical may not seem to require much, it is very
complicated. I have mostly focused on sound but I want to learn more about
backstage and lights and set building and painting. The school I want to go is
BYU because they have a great theater arts program/
Other
activities I want to pursue are gaming, hiking, and biking. My longer term goals include being a
missionary for my church, and marrying and starting a family.
I believe
the principles I learned in scouting will help me achieve my goals in education
and life.

Re: Brandt Barrus Eagle Candidate
Dear Mr. Kennard,
He is not perfect, by any measure. Sometimes he grouses a bit, and has to be reminded that he needs to shower more frequently than monthly. But he has worked hard, and I believe he will be a credit to the Boy Scout organization.
Thank you for your help putting together this application,
Best regards,
Kent Barrus

RE: Brandt Barrus, Eagle Candidate
Dear Mr. Kennard,
It
is with unreserved enthusiasm that I recommend my son, Brandt Barrus, as an
Eagle Scout. Brandt exemplifies all that is good in the scouting program. He
lives his life in accordance with the scout oath, doing his duty to God and his
country, being helpful to others, and keeping himself strong physically,
mentally, and morally. He is a person of principle.
I have met few young people who are as kind as Brandt. He is aware of others, friendly with all, and just an all-around nice guy. I've followed him down a school hallway and heard him say hello to pretty much everyone. Brandt was recently asked by a church leader to reach out to someone he felt needed a bit of extra kindness. Brandt chose a young friend who is dealing with transsexuality, telling us "She's going through a hard time."
When I look through the Scout Law, I can honestly say that Brandt is all a scout is meant to be. He is honest with us and loyal to family, friends, and church. Brandt will cheerfully help at home and in the neighborhood, often doing tasks without being asked. He is polite and friendly, and as I mentioned, so kind. He follows the rules for our family and for our community, saves his money, and is respectful of sacred things. He, perhaps, could work on his overall cleanliness, but when he does so many other things so well, I let a bit of stinkiness slide from time to time.
I know, because I love him, I am biased when I say Brandt is just a terrific young man. But I also know that he is trying his best to be his best self. I wholeheartedly recommend him to you and anyone else.
Sincerely,
Katherine Barrus, mother
RE: Eagle Scout REcommendation for Brandt Barrus
Dear Mr. Kennard,
It is with pleaure that I take some time to write you a letter of recommendation for Brandt Barrus. I am an Eagle Scout myself and have been involved in scouting for most of my life. Brandt is everything that the scouting program and the achievement of Eagle rank represents. He is honorable. He is trustworthy and he is helpful. He is one to jump in and help with any duty that is being done. He is not one to make fun of those that are working; he is a leader to get others to participate in the activity or the work. His duty is manifested to his family, to his neighbors, to his friends in the community and in his church. He is not a young man that will not willingly interact with adults. He is genuinely interested in other people, not just those his own age. What a great talent that is. He makes those around him feel important. To many young people older people are invisible or someone to ignore or even ridicule. This is never the case for Brandt.
I have known Brandt for more than eight years. In this time I have seen him exemplify every one of the characteristics outlined in the scout law. I have four daughters and no sons. The highest compliment that I can give of Brandt is that I would be very honored to have him as a member of our family and a son. He is respectful to his parents. He brings them much honor in his personal conduct. He will also bring this same honor to the scouting community as a member of the Eagle Scout fraternity.
Without reservation and with total support I provide you this letter of recommendation for Brandt Barrus.
Most sincerely,
Gregg Pugmire
