Advancement & Recognition
Eagle BoR meeting Virtually
We will still meet the 3rd Tuesday of each month, but will do so remotely. “Remotely” does necessitate the Scout to physically mail or electronically mail Eagle paperwork to Chris Hohn, Eagle Chair, so the paperwork is in his possession two days before the meeting. The Board will then proceed with its usual approval process, although remotely. Chris Hohn can be contacted at: chohn@thompsoncoburn.com
