All Eagle Scouts are encouraged to proudly sport their Eagle Scout lapel pins or hat pins and do some community service throughout the day of August 1, 2012 – 100 years to the day from the date the first Eagle Scout Award was earned by Arthur Eldred. There is no better way to know who you’re passing on the street than to know he’s an Eagle Scout. You might be surprised to find out how many of your friends and coworkers turn out to be fellow Eagle Scouts, too!
