It is the only version of the application that will be accepted and is only available on line. You may save it to your computer where you can complete it electronically or print it and complete it by hand.

Guide to Safe Scouting the official BSA publication designed to prepare adult leaders to conduct Scouting activities safely and prudently. The first section of the guide is devoted to youth protection and adult leadership. Eagle candidates must ensure that adults who provide supervision for their projects are acquainted with the Guide to Safe Scouting, and agree to abide by the guidelines in it.

Eagle Candidate Checklist outlines recommendation letter requirements, as well as all items that must be submitted to the council office in the Eagle packet.

 

Resources specific to 2011 policies (superseded on Jan. 1, 2012, but will remain available for reference as long as needed)

2011 Eagle Scout Leadership Service Project Workbook You must use this edition of the workbook to document your Eagle project. It is available only as a PDF form that can be completed electronically, then printed. Approval signatures must appear on the page designated for them, and they must be original signatures (not scanned or photocopied and not on a different page inserted in the workbook).

Tips for completing the PDF version of the workbook. An excellent Eagle project plan can be described using only the printed or PDF version of the workbook. If you wish, however, you may use a word processor and/or spreadsheet on your computer to complete the PROJECT DETAILS section of the workbook. Such material should be clearly labeled with the part of the workbook it goes in, and pages should be numbered.
