Recognizing the Best in Scouting
The Boy Scouts of America and the Cascade Pacific Council have a rich history of recognizing the goal-getters, the achievers and the leaders of Scouting. Below are some of the ways you can honor those you know.
National Opportunities
There are a huge variety of opportunities to recognize Scouts and Scouters with national awards from the Boy Scouts of America. Visit the BSA’s Awards Central website for the latest opportunities. (You may even propose an idea of your own to recognize Scouting’s best.)

Only Eagle Scouts who earned the Eagle Scout rank a minimum of 25 years previously are eligible for nomination. The award is granted by the National Eagle Scout Association upon the recommendation of a committee of Distinguished Eagle Scouts and awarded at our annual Leadership Luncheon.
