Honoring the Eagle Scout Tradition
Since Arthur Eldrod became the first Eagle Scout in 1912, the rank has stood as a milestone of accomplishment, recognized across the country and around the world. Earning the Eagle Scout rank is more than just an award—it's a state of being. Those who achieved it as youth continue to embody its values every day as outstanding citizens. Attaining the Eagle rank is often seen as the pinnacle of a Scout's journey, marking a commitment to excellence and perseverance over time. Yet, the Eagle rank is not the culmination of Scouting but a gateway to continued growth and leadership. Eagle Scouts can earn additional merit badges, guide and mentor younger Scouts, or apply their skills to meaningful endeavors beyond Scouting. There are countless ways for Eagle Scouts to continue contributing to and benefiting from the Scouting program. Learn more about our Alumni events here!
