📊 New Eagle Scout Study Released

Scouting America has released a major new research study:
“Eagle Scouts: A Legacy of Values-Based Leadership and Service.”

Conducted by The Harris Poll, the study examined the long-term impact of Scouting and the Eagle Scout experience on leadership, service, character, well-being, and civic engagement.

Among the findings:
⭐ 99% of Eagle Scouts say Scouting had a positive influence on their lives
⭐ Eagle Scouts report higher levels of leadership, purpose, gratitude, and community involvement
⭐ Non-Scouts overwhelmingly recognize the positive impact Scouting has on youth and society

The study also found Eagle Scouts are more likely to:
✔ Volunteer and lead in their communities
✔ Value honesty, responsibility, and service
✔ Maintain strong family and community relationships
✔ Spend time outdoors and practice environmental stewardship
✔ Live by the values found in the Scout Oath and Law

🌎 This research highlights the lasting impact Scouting can have on young people, families, and communities.

On Sunday June 7 from 10AM-3:30PM, Kings Mountain National Military Park will be hosting a Revolutionary War Scouting Adventure Day in partnership with the Palmetto Council. Scouts and their families are invited to visit the park and discover the Revolutionary War battle that marked the “turn of the tide of success” and more. This will be a great opportunity for scouts to earn their Revolutionary War Passport Patch and Battlefield Trail Award. There will also be reenactors doing weapons demonstrations, guided battlefield tours, and activity tables.

The program is free, but the Palmetto Council encourages scouts to RSVP ahead of time to ensure that enough patches are available. For more information and to RSVP follow the link below.
