Eagle Scout Information
Life Scouts (and future Eagles) of Aquia District,
For Life Scouts continuing along Your Life to Eagle Trail, congratulations! The summit of that Trail is in sight! Your Scout leaders will provide great guidance as you continue forward to attaining the highest rank in Scouting. As you focus on your Eagle Scout Service Project, this website and associated links will be helpful—and necessary! The Aquia District goal is to prepare and assist you, the Life Scout/Eagle Scout candidate, by:
Providing final approval of your Service Project plan prior to beginning the project;
· Providing guidance in carrying out the project;
· Providing guidance in writing-up and submitting your project; and,
· Representing the National Capital Area Council (NCAC) on your Eagle Board of Review (BOR) prior to submission of the Eagle Scout Application and Service Project Workbook to Council and, ultimately to National Scout headquarters for final approval.
