Eagle Scout

Since 1912, the Eagle Scout rank has represented a milestone of accomplishment-perhaps without equal-that is recognized across the country and even the world. Those who have earned the Eagle Scout rank count it among their most treasured achievements. “Eagle Scout” is not just an award; it is a state of being. Those who earned it as youth continue to earn it every day as adults. That is why an Eagle Scout IS an Eagle Scout-not was.
