If you see a conflict between this page, the Greater Los Angeles Area Council's - GLAAC.  Life to Eagle and National BSA Web Page documents or from Scoutmaster and this page, ask your Troop Eagle Adviser - Project Coach for clarity!      (San Gabriel Valley District was called Lucky Baldwin District,  GLAAC was caled San Gabriel Valley in past)

Planning

* BSA Leaders are looking for the Scouts to complete the requirements, parents should not be doing the requirements for the Scout. Parents can answer questions and give feedback to their Scout, but should not be calling or talking or Emailing to others on the Scout's behalf.  Life Scouts be on time, be in charge and be prepared.

Who will the Life Scout be working with?:
Project Beneficiary Representative  - Benefactor of the project  (rep for the place of the project. Cannot be a for profit or BSA)
Troop  Eagle Adviser  (Troop 373 has two to pick from, ask) - also called Project Coach
Troop Eagle Advancement Chair  - Also Called Unit Advancement Coordinator
Troop Scoutmaster  - Also Called Unit Leader
Troop Committee Chair  - Also Called Unit Committee Chair 
San Gabriel Valley District (GLAAC) Advancement Chair - also Called Council or District Project Approval Representative
Parent(s)
Letters of Reference persons

____

Be in Full BSA Eagle Class A when meeting with any the above, with Merit Badge Sash, BSA pants, Neckerchief, official BSA Slide, BSA socks and polished black or brown shoes. Always have a pen and paper for notes at all meetings.

__________

Role these leaders have with the Scout:

Troop  Eagle Adviser:   This the first person you talk with! Pre project approval before going to the Scoutmaster (no signature needed). Uniform inspection and gives info. Helps solve problems, like miss MBs or other problems. Note: Troop  Eagle Adviser is now called "Project Coach" on Eagle Scout Service Project Workbook page 1-6. Eagle Resume book approval before Scoutmaster Conference for Eagle Rank. Approves project date.  If a scout has any problems or issue that needs addressing they may talk to the Troop  Eagle Adviser only. Do not go to the Scoutmaster. If in doubt contact your Troop  Eagle Adviser first!

Benefactor of the project: Project ideas, project planning, pre project approval, post project completion approval. Writes Letter of Completion from Benefactor organization, is now required.

Troop Advancement Chair: Letters of Reference and copy of individual Scout Troop records (leadership, advancement and MBs).
       Note: Per San Gabriel Valley District (GLAAC) Advancement Chair, Troop 373 individual Scout record and GLAAC(-SGVC) individual Scout records do NOT go in your Eagle book, these are to help you complete the forms and verify you have all the needed requirements..

Troop Scoutmaster: Only does: Pre project approval with signature (after Eagle Adviser's approval), post post project completion signature (after Eagle Adviser's approval) and Scoutmaster Conference for Eagle Rank - handbook signature (after Eagle Adviser's approval), Eagle Application signature at Conference. Writes Scoutmaster letter after the Eagle Scoutmaster Conference.. Will be at BOR (or an ASM - Project Coach if not available). It is the Scout's job to show the Scoutmaster HE IS PREPARED.. That his is Eagle material is prepared, that he can to the best of his ability live the Scout Oath and Motto. Alway make appointment to talk to the Scoutmaster, at a scout meeting is best, but other times are available.  Always be in full Class A when talking to Scoutmaster, with all your paperwork and books.

Troop Committee Chair: Pre project approval signature and Eagle Application signature at completion (after Eagle Adviser's approval).

San Gabriel Valley District (GLAAC) Advancement Chair: After Scoutmaster Conference: Pre project approval. After Project: Eagle Resume book approval, will be at BOR.  [Parents may be seated and present during the Scouts meeting with the LB Advancement Chair, but should not talk other than to say hello and answer any questions directed to them, if a parent is not able to follow these rules, do not attend the meeting.]

Parent(s):  Answer questions and give feedback at home to their Scout, Take Photos at the Project, write parent letter and will be at the BOR. Provide transportation. But should not be calling or talking to others on the Scout's behalf. (If a parent feels they have a serious or important issue that needs addressing they may talk to the Troop  Eagle Adviser only. Do not go to the Scoutmaster).  On the day of the project parents: take photo, transport goods and food, run power tools and  power equipment (as scouts can not use power tools), and be on the look out for any safety issues. But their son must run the project.  If a parent has a suggestion to improve the project, they should talk to their son one on one and then let their son direct the workers.  If there some prep work needed before the project, parents can help their son with this prep work and record those hours. Like wise if there is some post finial work that needs to be done to complete the project, parents and son can do this work and complete the project. Reminder: The Scout must show leadership skills on his project day, so the project must have work that the Troop scouts (and friends) can complete at the direction of the Eagle Project Scout ! A mostly parent - son project is not an Eagle Project.

Letters of Reference persons: Request Letters of Reference for Eagle Rank, once project is approved, (see below). Educator,  Religious leader, Employer (if applicable) [or if not employed, someone you have volunteered for or any other non family member] . Two other letters, (these are adults who know you personally, but a non family member, like a neighbors, church members, friends.) Scout works with Troop Advancement Chair to mail out letters as numbered letters are mail to Troop Advancement Chair .

Supplier(s) If supplies are needed: suppliers - vendors - stores, it is the scouts job to work with these persons. Scout can request donation of goods.

Uniform Full BSA Life - Eagle Scout Class A    
     (For all meeting with Scoutmaster and San Gabriel Valley Eagle Chair)
Always Be in Full BSA Life - Eagle Class A when meeting with the anyone about becoming an Eagle Scout, with your Merit Badge Sash. 

*As a Life Scout working on Eagle Rank it is required for all Eagle Scout Meetings like: Eagle Scoutmaster Conferences, Troop  Eagle Adviser and Eagle Board of Review that you have the: official BSA pants with black or brown polished shoes, with official BSA socks. With Merit Badge Sash, Troop Neckerchief and official BSA Slide.

* Check your uniform, see the Troop 373 Uniform Page.

* Correct any needed items. Wear your merit badges sash for all meetings. Check that your merit badges are on correctly (not 90 or 180 degrees. out), see the scout book or check online for correct position. The order of the merit badges on your sash does not matter, so long as they are in rows of three across and down. No other patches can be on your Sash.

*  Religious Emblems Programs: Scout families must have or order any associated medal from the group (like PRAY) listed in the workbook. The medal is required for Eagle Scouts to wear with the religious knot emblem. Without the metal an Eagle Scout may be requested to remove the religious knot emblem for the Eagle BOR.

Merit Badge Planning:

* You may start your project if you are working on (or have completed) your last Eagle Required Merit Badges. But be sure you do not over load yourself. See: the Troop MB List Page - How and Where of MB -   Troop 373 MB page 

To earn Eagle, 21 Merit Badges are required. 14 required Eagle Merit Badges and 4 other Merit Badges.     

* You may start planing your Eagle Project once you have completed the majority of your required merit badges and are working on completing the few remaining merit badges.  We have found some Scouts get overloaded working on an Eagle project and working to complete Eagle merit badges at the same time.  So, with only 2 to 3 Eagle Merit Badges to be completed, a Scout can start planning his Eagle Project.

Here are the 14 required MBs:

First Aid MB should be done before or during the following:
Emergency Preparedness or Lifesaving  - Personal Fitness - Camping  -  Cooking  - Swimming  or Cycling  or Hiking  Note it is: Emergency Preparedness OR Lifesaving *) (Swimming OR Hiking OR Cycling *)

Non - First Aid prerequisite: Family Life - Citizenship in the Community - Citizenship in the Nation - Citizenship in the World - Communications - Personal Management - Environmental Science or  Sustainability (Note it is: Environmental Science OR Sustainability *)   and 

Note: The are time requirements in some these merit badges, so Scouts that are 17, start early so you do not run out of time. See: Cooking, Camping, Family Life , Personal Management and Personal Fitness for time requirements. 

Once you have 20 night of camping  (can only count one week long camp (6 nights), other week long camp [4 or more nights] count as 2 night) and one or more backpack trips, you are ready to complete your camping MB with a troop councilor.

Four Eagle MBs where used for Star Rank and three more for Life Rank,  plus 2  none Eagle MBs for each Rank.
Any extra Eagle MBs not used for Rank can be used as a none Eagle MBs for Rank.

You must have your blue card copy of your 21 Merit Badges, your copy is called  Applicant's Record . If you are missing a card(s) ask for a replacement  from the Troop Merit Badge coordinator  or other leader. Check for missing signatures or dates or other errors work with Troop Merit Badge coordinator to fix. 

1) A Scout starts working on Camping Merit Badge with his first Tenderfoot camp, as this camp counts towards the Camping Merit Badge. Keep track of your BSA camping nights.

2) A Scout wanting to start working on Cooking Merit Badge, please talk with Scoutmaster to earn. With his first campout after earning 1st Class Rank, as these camps may count towards the Cooking Merit Badge. Plan ahead for these campout, tell the Scoutmaster you are using the campout to work on Cooking MB, as it may not count after the camp if you do not plan ahead!  In Troop 373 the Scoutmaster one of the Cooking Merit Badge Counselor.

3) For Citizenship in the Nation: Visit a place or Tour a place; means a place you visited since becoming a Scout. (normally in March as a 10-11 year old). This applies for many merit badge requirements, past events as a Troop Scout (not a Cub Scout) can be applied to a Merit Badge requirement.

4)  World Conservation Award: If you have earned these three MBs you have earned the World Conservation Award:

        1. Environmental Science OR Sustainability merit badge
        2. Soil and Water Conservation OR Fish and Wildlife Management merit badge
        3. Citizenship in the World merit badge

       Report to the Troop Awards Chair that you have earned the award.  Turn in the form at this link 

       The awards can be listed on your Eagle Resume as a honor earned.

* The Scout must secure the prior approval of the project recipient, first his Scout Adviser, then his unit leader-Scoutmaster, and Troop Committee Chair.  Then the project must be reviewed and approved by the San Gabriel Valley District Advancement Chair to make sure that it meets the stated standards for Eagle Scout service projects before the project is started.

* When you are starting you project planing, talk to the Scoutmaster about your current Leadership Position in the Troop ! You need to have a current Leadership Position in the Troop and have that Leadership Position patch on your uniform for your first Scoutmaster Conference, Eagle Project planning and Eagle BOR !

*Notes: "The Project  must have some relatively permanent importance. Washing the windows or mowing the lawn of your church, or just picking up trash, for example, are great ideas, but no where near Eagle Projects. On the other hand, landscaping an area which is just dirt, building facilities (shed, tables, benches, planters) or equipment for your church or school or undertaking a major rehabilitation project (e.g. scraping, sanding and painting) may be an Eagle Project.  Always remember that people in institutions such as these may be familiar with Scouting and even with Eagle Project requirements, so they may be better able to help think of things than you would expect.  The project must provide you with leadership opportunities, so it cannot be something just the Scout does alone. The project must, of course, be on your own, even though you must have others help you with it. Two Life Scout candidates for Eagle may not share or "go in together on" a project."  Ask your Troop  Eagle Adviser and other BSA leaders for ideas and if needed check the web.

* Once you have the OK for your Eagle Project, from the Troop Adviser and then Scoutmaster, write up your detailed plan in the Eagle Scout Service Project Workbook. Once done include before photos, (if possible). Have the the Troop's Eagle adviser approved your written plan. Troop's Eagle Adviser may point out any needed corrections. The Benefactor of the project must sign the proposal. Once approved, then make an appointment to have your Eagle Project Plan book signed by Troop 373's Scoutmaster. Then you are ready make an appointment with the GLAAC Gabriel Valley Advancement Chair to approve your project plan and check your Full Class A Uniform.  Currently GLAAC  Gabriel Valley Advancement Chair meets with the Scouts at his home, a parent can come and listen, but should not be part of the meeting.

* The following questions must be answered in the Project Description and Planning Details  report:

1. What is the project?
2. Who will benefit from this project?
3. How will they benefit from this project?
4. Explain how you expect to show leadership by completing this project.
5. What official from the group benefited will be contacted for guidance in planning the project?
6. What are the specific goals and objectives?
7. What materials/funds will be required for this project?
8. How will these materials/funds be acquired?
9. When do I plan to start/finish this project?
10. How many people will be recruited to carry out the project? (Estimate number of helpers and time to be spent by each)
11. What (if any) training is needed?

Eagle Scout Service Project Workbook

a) Download newest copy from  http://www.scouting.org/Home/BoyScouts/AdvancementandAwards/EagleWork

You must us a pdf program that can save your work as you work on it, like:  Adobe Acrobat or Nitro PDF (3) or Fox it (all have free download versions.)

1) Contact info and instructions 

2) Your Proposal, no date set for project. Need approval and signatures 

3) Eagle Scout Service Project Final Plan, no signatures, just adviser a approval week before project.

4 ) Eagle Scout Service Project Fund raising Application, optional 

5)  Eagle Scout Service Project Report, after project is done, signatures.:

Do not leave any fields blank. Use complete sentences. If you are not sure ask your Troop Eagle Adviser -

Use correct spelling, capitation and grammar (have someone good at this check it for you after you write it up).   

a) Contact Information:  Ask leader for this info.

1)  Your Proposal (part 1): 

Your write up of what you would like your project to be, then show it to your Troop Eagle Adviser for verbal approval. It is then signed by rep for the Benefactor organization,  then the Scoutmaster (Unit Leader) and Troop Committee Chair (Unit Committee).  Then the project must be reviewed and approved by the San Gabriel Valley District Advancement Chair (Council or District Approval). 

2)  Eagle Scout Service Project Final Plan (part 2):

After the above Proposal approval and before the project start, have a meeting with your Troop Eagle Adviser(a week before the project would be good) and complete this sections.  There will be planning steps that need to be done after your project is approved.  Have your found any changes needed. Added steps-phases: like: getting all the needed supplies and donations. Food planning and getting the food you have at your project. Will the food be donated or purchased or both?  Is cooking needed.   Are there any permit needed? If none,write NA or none, do not leave any field blank !  List Materials,  Supplies, Tools and other items (food) you got for the project. Cost for all those items.  How may people do you think you will need for the project, what will they do.  Remember Scout (under 18) cannot use power tools, only adults (over 18).  Communicating with helpers. Logistics: car pooling, transport materials need to be listed.  Food and restrooms details.  Safety write up.   List your Plan B: contingency plans:  If it rains, if it is too hot or too cold or too windy or too many helpers or too few helpers.  Life Scout needs to have ideas of what to do if too many Scouts come. The things planned for the extra Scouts can be items that you do not write up in your report. Raking and sweeping are not an Eagle Project, but scouts that do these can have the hours count towards your project. Raking and sweeping are not an Eagle Project, but the hours count, it gives you leadership and it gives the whole Troop a service project.

Talk to your Project Coach to complete: Comments From Your Project Coach About Your Final Plan, A project coach's comments can be extremely helpful in assuring your project is successful.     

3) Eagle Scout Service Project Fund raising Application: (Part 3)

least two weeks in advance of your fund raising efforts. You will be contacted if it cannot be approved or if adjustments must be
made.    You may raise money or you may ask for donation.  Ask leader for a letter from the Troop with the Troop non-profit #. Donations are tax deductible.   Parents, the scout, family members and others may donate to your project. 

4)  Eagle Scout Service Project Report:  Post Project write up (Part 4).

_________

Timing:

From the completion of your Project, you should have your paperwork-Eagle book, letters and merit badges all completed and turn in with in 6 months or before your 18th birthday. Turning in paper work past 6 months would require a very good explanation - reason.  Being too late (past 6 months) may risk project rejection.

7) Scoutmaster   (required by GLACC, but not listed on the BSA form)
                                         The Scoutmaster will write his letter after your Scoutmaster conference.

Before requesting letters, check with the Advancement Chair to see that above requirements will passed.
Next ask the person if they are willing to write a one page letter for you. Letters can be written to To whom it may concern or to Eagle Board of Review.
With your written request letter, send an addressed (to the Troop Advancement Chair), stamped letter size envelope. On the return envelope your provide to them, number them 1 to 7 (as listed above), this is so the Troop Advancement Chair can tell you which letters you are missing! Note:
Next give these letter to the Advancement Chair to be mailed!
The Scout must provide the full names, addresses and phone numbers of six individuals -- his parents or guardians
These letters can be the great cause for delay. Scouts with limited time (18th birthday coming up soon) need to stay on top of this project and send out more than the min. number of needed letters. Or if you see delays, request a letter from someone else. Having more than 7 letters is not a problem, have not enough letters is a major problem. There are a number of sample request letters you may pattern yours after, Troop 373 recommends this letter: GLAAC - (SGVC) sample.A form letter need not be used, but this one from the GLAAC is very good recommend by the Troop Advancement Chair, just print:  A very short note thanking them for their help and signed by you would be nice to add with the form letter. Check with the Troop Advancement Chair periodically to see if he/she has the reference letters. You may have to call some of your references to remind them to mail them in a timely manner. If you mail your request early, you will have time to request a reference from a different person, if  any of your requests do not come through.  Do not put the names of the persons on your Eagle Scout Rank Application until you are sure which people have sent references to the Troop Advancement Chair.  Once your work book is completed  AND approved by your Eagle Adviser, and after your finial Scoutmaster Conference arrange to get your letters from the Advancement Chair before turn them into the   San Gabriel Valley Advancement Chair.

 Rank Dates: The Scout should either find and copy the date listed on his First Class and Star Award recognition (pocket) cards, verify the following through official records from his Troop. It is good to verify the following through official records maintained at the GLAAC (SGVC) office also. The date of the Board of Review is the date which should be also on the card or within the database or advancement report. If you have differing dates, ask your adviser for help. Ask for a copy of your GLAAC records at the GLAAC office help desk.

Registration Data: Life date and birth date are two important questions asked on the application.  You must complete ALL requirements for the Eagle Scout Award (including completion of all Eagle paperwork) less participation in an Eagle Board of Review Before your 18th birthday. Troop Scout advancement ends on the 18th birth date of the Scout. The Board of Review can take place within three months after the Scout's 18th birthday with no explanation.  A Scout  must be active in his unit for at least six months after the awarding of the Life Scout rank; the six months begin with the successful completion of the Board of Review for the Life Scout rank. Verification comes from the date listed on the Life Scout recognition card, or from official records of the Troop or the GLAAC (SGVC).

(After three months from 18th birth date, Local Councils have another three month “grace period” in which to conduct an Eagle Scout Board of Review for the Scout, but a statement by an adult must be attached to the application explaining the delay.  A Board of Review more than six months after the member's 18th birthday may be held under exceptional circumstances only with permission from the National Scouts BSA Program Division.) [exceptional circumstances would be for things like: military service, injuries or other hardships...]

Scout can not use the his last 9 merit badge earned, because the dates on the merit badges will be too new to use for Star Rank. The  21 merit badges, including 13 from a list of Eagle required merit badges and their alternates, are required to qualify for the Eagle Scout Badge.  On the actual application place a line through the one of the choices between Emergency Preparedness and Lifesaving; and between Hiking, Cycling and Swimming to denote which badge you have chosen in that category.  If you choose to use any of those crossed out merit badges as an elective merit badge, you must write in the name of that merit badge on the space provided. See crossed out example: Emergency Preparedness or Lifesaving;  Hiking, Cycling and Swimming
[At least 4 required merit badges must be listed by the Star rank date. A total of at least 7 required merit badges must be listed by Life rank date.]

* Once your Eagle book is ready, have a the Troop's Eagle adviser approve it, before showing it to the Scoutmaster!  Troop's Eagle adviser may point out needed corrections.

This final approval must done before your 18th Birthday !

Eagle Board of Review

* 1) Once your paperwork is approved by the San Gabriel Valley Advancement Chair (before your 18th birthday), the San Gabriel Valley Advancement Chair will set up appointment for an Eagle Board of Review - BOR. Tell your Scoutmaster soon about the appointment so he (or a ASM if needed) can be there with you and your parents. Come in Full Eagle Scout class A, (a military press of your shirt may be requested) and bring your Scout handbook to be signed, come 10 minutes early. The BOR will talk to your Parents, then the Scoutmaster and then the Scout. (Your Parents may want to bring a camera) You will get your Eagle Resume Book back at the BOR. Be clam your leadership and service has brought you to this place. 

2) They may ask the scout questions that do not reflex on the scout making Eagle [but do reflex on our Troop]: 1) What is altitude sickness  , what do you do if some one has it.(The only reliable treatment and in many cases the only option available is to descend.).  2) What do you do if caught in a lighting storm while backpacking? BSA:   “The only completely safe action is to get inside a safe building or vehicle.”  But backpacking these are normally not around.   Spread your group out from each other if possible. Stay away from tall, isolated trees; flag poles; totem poles; or other tall objects. If you are in a forest, stay near a lower area stand of trees.  Remember, a tent offers NO protection from lighting.  Stay away from water, wet items (such as ropes), and metal objects (such as fences and poles). Water and metal are excellent conductors of electricity.  Drop all metal objects during a storm, such as internal or external frame backpacks, trekking poles (including aluminum and carbon fiber), crampons, jewelry, etc., and move 100 feet away from them. Adopt the lightning position as a last resort: Crouch down on the balls of your feet and keep them as close together as possible. Cover your ears, and don't allow other body parts to touch the ground. By keeping the surface area of your body in contact with the ground to a minimum you reduce the threat of electricity traveling across the ground from affecting you.Other website on topic.

A Scout should also know about the founding of BSA. Who are: William Boyce,  Baden-Powell and the UNKNOWN BOY SCOUT.

* After passing your Eagle Board of Review, it will take 6-8 weeks for the completed Eagle paperwork to return from BSA National Council in Texas. You pick up your completed paper work at the GLAAC (SGVC). Call the Council if you don't hear from them after 8 weeks.

* You will be asked to get your Eagle Scout Portrait taken, this will be hung in the entrance to the Scout Center. After this you will have the chance to purchase the Portrait. Ask about using your large Portrait at your COH, they can loan it to you.. You will also get a electronic B&W soft copy, that can be used in your Eagle COH slide show if you wish or a COH program sheet, if you make one. You will be asked if you want to buy any Portraits or photos, this is up to your family.

* It is customary to request Eagle Letters of Congratulations. You may also request from your Congress Rep a US Flag flown over the US capital in the Scout's honor, this will have a small fee, ask. Your Congress Rep has a DC office and local office, ask you local office, if close by, go to your local office. It can take up to 3 month or more to get reply from some Eagle Letter of Congratulations for some groups. This letters are displayed at Eagle COH and put in a memory book for safe keeping. Have the request letters ready as soon as you pass your Eagle board. (Note replies sometimes take months to get from the requested group, a COH need not wait for all the letters, some (only a few) requests ask for your COH date)  Troop 373 Sample letters. 

* If is customary to have a Special Eagle Court of Honor ceremony. This can be very simple or very elaborate, it is up to you. It can be held with one or several Eagle Scouts. Various Eagle Court of Honor decorations can be reserved at the Scout Center for the Eagle Court of Honor at no cost (see below). A room at the Church can be reserved for the COH (at no cost), usually Pritchard Hall, (or the Old North Church) check with the Troop leaders.  (If you wish not to have special Eagle Court of Honor ceremony, you may also have Eagle Rank awards at the end of the normal Troop COH.)

A Scout may give out extra Mentor pins, these are sold by the each at the scout shop, families would need to buy them.  You can put your Eagle Scout Patch on you uniform as soon as you pass your BOR. Note: BSA National must approve your BOR so there is a short delay to get your Eagle Kit from the GLAAC.  Once you have the kit you may also get your Eagle neckerchief and slide.  The Eagle neckerchief and slide has not been paid for by the Troop in the past and this tradition will continue, one reason is there are a few different types of neckerchiefs and slides available. There are a print and sewn in design Eagle neckerchiefs. There are 3 types of Eagle slides, the Troop's recommendation is to get the large oval one.

In your National BSA Eagle Rank paperwork kit, will be an invite to join the NESA - The National Eagle Scout Association, they have yearly or life time membership, this comes with a magazine to your home. It is up to your family if you wish to join.

Once you turn 18 you can get an Eagle Knot for your Uniform as you cannot have the Eagle Patch on anymore (please change within 90 days after your 18th Birth day).
