Bucktail District - Laurel Highlands Council, Scouting America

Behind every Eagle Scout is a story. 🦅

A Scout who kept showing up.
A parent who drove to meetings and campouts.
A leader who taught a skill or offered some encouragement.
A mentor who helped turn an idea into a service project.
A friend who was there along the way.

The Eagle Scout Recognition Dinner is a chance to bring those people together and celebrate a milestone that took more than one person to achieve.

Join us Tuesday, November 24, as we recognize the newest Eagle Scouts of Laurel Highlands Council.

Find registration details on our website under Giving → Special Events.

Our very own Alana F. And Troop 271 were featured in today's highlight from Laurel Highlands Council. If you or your unit want to participate in this year's popcorn sale, there is still time. Contact [email protected] for more details.

From “we’ve never really sold popcorn” to more than $1,400 in sales!

Troop 271, a Girl Troop in the Bucktail District, decided to give popcorn a try this year after learning about the Trail's End 2-case incentive for new units.

They didn’t just reach it. They doubled it!!

With three active popcorn sellers, Troop 271 has already recorded $1,423 in sales, and every Scout has exceeded the personal sales goal they set for themselves. ⚜️

One of those Scouts is Alana F., who joined the Troop this spring. After learning about the 2-case incentive for new units, Alana and her dad realized popcorn could be a way to help he fund her own adventures. 🏕️

Alana set a goal for herself of $1,000. And she has already passed it, making her the top-selling Scout in the Bucktail District to date. 🎉

It’s a great reminder that sometimes all it takes is giving something new a try, setting a goal and getting to work. We’re excited to see where Troop 271 and these Scouts finish the popcorn season! 🍿

👏 Congratulations to Colton of Troop 43 on achieving Scouting’s highest rank of Eagle Scout! 🦅⚜️
For his Eagle Scout service project, he led the construction of a gaga ball pit at his local community park. He coordinated the planning, leadership, and work needed to bring the project to life.

We look forward to seeing all that Colton accomplishes as he carries the lessons of Scouting into the future.
