📣 Announcement: Special 250th Anniversary Eagle Scout Certificate (2026) 🇺🇸🦅

To commemorate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, and in recognition of Scouting America’s partnership with America250, Scouting America will present all Eagle Scouts who earn the rank in 2026 with a special commemorative Eagle Scout certificate.

This limited-edition certificate will be available only to Scouts who achieve the Eagle Scout rank during the 2026 calendar year.

✅ What Scouts and units need to know:
• The special certificate will begin issuing automatically starting February 1, 2026
• No special request is required—it will replace the standard Eagle certificate for all 2026 recipients
• Scouts who earned Eagle in January 2026 may request a reprint through their local council using the current complimentary reprint process
• Councils are asked to submit January 2026 reprint requests as a consolidated weekly list to support timely processing

Congratulations to all 2026 Eagle Scouts—this is a meaningful way to honor service, leadership, and achievement during a historic year.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the devastating attack on the World Trade Center. To honor and remember this anniversary, we are pleased to have Col. (ret) Mark Tillman as our keynote speaker! Col. Tillman served as pilot and commander of Air Force One, protecting the President on Sept. 11, 2001, keeping him out of harm’s way and connecting the flying oval office to the nation’s first responders.
Sponsorships and donations ensure boys and girls have quality Scouting programs in the 27 counties served by Mid-Iowa Council, scholarships for those with financial needs, and can attend camp. Visit https://www.ldrlunch.org/ See you May 1, 2026!
