He went on two treks through Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico. He attended Florida Sea Base in the Florida Keys and the Teton High Adventure Camp.

At Veritas Christian School, May has lettered in cheerleading, football, basketball and golf, and has served on the Student Council. He has been active with the Youth of Grace Evangelical Presbyterian Church. He had a Lawrence Journal-World paper delivery route for three years, continuing a family tradition begun and sustained by an older brother, Paul May, also an Eagle Scout, and a sister, Rebecca May, a Girl Scout Gold Award recipient.
