The Heart of Virginia Council continues its tradition of providing this event free of charge for the 2023 Eagle Scout, two guests, and the Eagle Scout’s Scoutmaster which will be underwritten with generous sponsorships by many Scout Alumni, Chartered Organizations, Scouting supporters, and local businesses. Each sponsorship is a tax-deductible contribution that directly supports each Eagle Scout with their Eagle kit including certificate, medal, badge, and pins free of charge.

Family members, Scout Leaders, and Eagle Scout Alumni are encouraged to attend this very special program to recognize the young men and women of the Eagle Scout Class of 2023. The event includes a special commencement address from a keynote speaker, recognitions of the Scouts of the 2023 Eagle Class, Adams Service Project of the Year Award, Eagle Class honoree and National Outstanding Eagle Scout Award (NOESA).
