Subject: New Eagle Project Workbook is required for all new projects starting January 1, 2012.

Update to when the new workbook is effective.

Attention Scouts, Leaders, and Parents or Guardians
Eagle Scout rank requirement 5 has been reworded. To support that change, a new
Eagle Scout Service Project Workbook has been created. Through Dec. 31, 2011, Scouts have a choice to use either the new workbook or the one it is replacing.

 

Scouts whose Eagle Scout service project has already been approved by the council or district under the former wording of requirement 5—and using the former workbook—should continue with the same workbook.

 

If their project has not yet been approved by the council or district, they may elect to use the revised requirement 5 and the new workbook. Starting Jan. 1, 2012, Eagle Scout candidates—unless they have already submitted a plan for approval by the council or district under the former requirement—will be expected to fulfill the revised service project requirement 5 using the new workbook.

For new projects (started after 2011), please make sure you use the most current version of the workbook, as National BSA will only accept the latest version, and not older versions. The latest version is posted below, and can be easily downloaded.
