George Maher Eagle Scout

85-year-old long-time Scouter and current council office volunteer George Maher received his Eagle Scout Award in January 2013. The passing of his father and WW II interrupted his receipt of the award. It's a great story. See the two news articles, NBC news video, and photos here.

 Distinguished Eagle Scout Award Recipients

The Distinguished Eagle Scout Award is a national honor established in 1969 to acknowledge Eagle Scouts who have received extraordinary national-level recognition, fame, or eminence within their field, and have a strong record of voluntary service to their community. Only Eagle Scouts who earned the Eagle Scout rank a minimum of 25 years previously are eligible for nomination. The award is given by the National Eagle Scout Association upon the recommendation of a committee of Distinguished Eagle Scouts.
