Andrew Schigelone Hits 121
Posted by admin under: recognition .
In baseball a .121 would be bad, but in the Boy Scouts of America 121 is very, very good. Recently Shawn Goldsmith made all kinds of headlines for earning all 121 Boy Scouts merit badges. Andrew Schigelone has joined him in his rare accomplishment.
An 18-year-old from Lincoln Park is being honored for earning all of the Boy Scouts’ 121 merit badges.
Andrew Schigelone says he was 12 when he set out to earn all possible merit badges before turning 18.
He tells the Detroit Free Press he “wasn’t too serious about it” until racking up 35 badges over three years at a camp in Metamora and realizing the goal was possible.
The Gabriel Richard High School senior got his final merit badge for archaeology Dec. 11.
