The Hunterdon Arrowhead District Congratulates Kaden Brightwell of Troop 112, who passed his Board of Review and is one of our newest Eagle Scouts. Kaden is pictured with HAD Advancement Co-Chairs Tracey Lynne Giannouris and Ed Morris, along with HAD Chair Chris Phelan and Kaden's Parents.

Earning the Eagle Scout rank represents years of dedication, leadership, service to others, and a commitment to living the values of the Scout Oath and Scout Law. These young leaders have demonstrated perseverance, character, and a desire to make a lasting difference in their communities.

Every Eagle Scout leaves a legacy through their service, but the impact of Scouting reaches far beyond a single project. Here in Hunterdon County, Scouting develops tomorrow's leaders by teaching responsibility, citizenship, outdoor skills, teamwork, and service. Our Scouts strengthen our communities today while preparing to lead them tomorrow.

Congratulations to our newest Eagle Scouts on this incredible achievement. Your Hunterdon Scouting family is proud of you, and we look forward to seeing the positive impact you will continue to make for years to come.

Thousands of Scouts from every corner of America—including Scouts from Hunterdon County—are gathering at the National Jamboree for an unforgettable experience of adventure, leadership, service, and friendship.

The National Jamboree is more than camping—it's where young people strengthen the values of the Scout Oath and Scout Law, build confidence, develop leadership skills, serve others, and create lifelong memories with Scouts from across the nation. These experiences help shape tomorrow's leaders and reinforce Scouting America's mission to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes.

This year's National Jamboree also features an inspiring performance by AY Young, an Eagle Scout, acclaimed musician, and global humanitarian who is using music to bring awareness to sustainability and positive change. His journey is a powerful reminder of the impact Scouting can have on a lifetime of leadership and service.
