Eagle



This guy had his Eagle Board of Review last night!  Since its inception in 1902, 2.01 % of the boys who joined Boy Scouts went on to get their Eagle.  Things have been trending higher such that in 2014 6.01%  of eligible scouts earned their Eagle.*  

The council member at Matthew’s board indicated that 4.4% of boys who join scouts get their Eagle.  So pick your statistic.  We know is was a lot of work and Matthew saw it through to the end!

  2. Congrats to your Eagle and family! Will he have a ceremony? I think David T is next month. Can't believe you and Karen have seniors in high school! And I know I am two steps behind you!
