EAGLE SCOUT RECOGNITION:
For many years, the S.A.R. has recognized the many common bonds of principle and purpose shared by the
S.A. R. and the Boy Scouts of America.
You young men achieving the rank of Eagle Scout have demonstrated your belief in these common
principles. For this reason, the S.A.R. believes that Eagle Scouts are deserving of special recognition for
their accomplishment and dedication.
We invite all Eagle Scouts of the River Valley, Temescal, Tahquitz and Old Baldy Districts of the California
Inland Empire Council to send us a formal invitation to your Eagle Scout Court of Honor where we will honor
you with the "Good Citizenship" medal and certificate. Please send your invitations to:

2012 Eagle Scouts Recognized
EAGLE SCOUT SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM:
There are three levels at which an Eagle Scout might receive recognition and/or monetary awards
1. CHAPTER LEVEL: The Riverside Chapter of the S.A.R. presents a certificate, The Riverside Chapter
Eagle Scout Scholarship is open to all Eagle Scouts of the River Valley, Temescal, Tahquitz and Old Baldy
Districts of the California Inland Empire Council who meet the stated qualifications
2. STATE LEVEL: The winner of the Riverside Chapter level is submitted to The California Society of the
S.A.R. state Eagle Scout Scholarship program competition. The winner of the state competition will receive
a handsome Eagle Trophy and a cash award.
3. NATIONAL LEVEL: The winner of the California State level competition is submitted to the S.A.R.
National Eagle Scout Committee which meets in February or March of each year to judge state winner
entries and to select the three top National Scholarship winners.
The National winner receives an $8,000 scholarship award and is brought as a guest to the National S.A.R.
Congress held in June or July of each year where the award is made and the Eagle Scout presents his
essay to the assembly.
The first runner-up receives a $4,000 award and the second runner-up $2,000 which is presented at a State
Society meeting.
Who may apply and deadlines for applications
Any Eagle Scout is eligible to apply who is still registered actively in a Scout unit provided that he does NOT
reach his 19th birthday in the calendar year of application.
An Eagle may apply more than one year, but no individual may be awarded more total dollars than the
$8000 First Place award. For example, if an Eagle applies one year and receives the National runner-up
award of $4000, and has not reached his 19th birthday in the following calendar year, he may apply the
second year, but if he were the First Place winner, he would receive only an additional $4000.
States may have different rules for winners within States and/or Chapters.
DEADLINE:
This annual competition is conducted on a calendar year basis.
The Riverside chapter has a deadline of December 15th for submission of entries to:
