Important!
The most common problem with National BSA not approving the Eagle
Badge is Registration from beginning in Scouts to Eagle board of review.
Check with
the Registration Dept 214-902-6790 to be sure the scout was officially
registered
before the board of review. This is especially true if they are over
18 yr old.
Also be sure the scout has had at least 6
months and 1 wk
in the leadership position after the date of Life.
Important! Be sure to use a current application for Eagle=> Application for Eagle Badge
Important!
Be sure to use the current Eagle Project Workbook that starts in 2012.

Suggestions for Eagle Projects
Dr. Knapp's Instructions for eagle project approval
Council instructions for eagle project.
Instructions for preparing for the board of review for Eagle.
General instructions for Merit Badges and all board of reviews.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
NOTE: Starting Jan1,
2012 you will need to email Dr. Knapp a copy of your online advancements and
a copy of your eagle application. I will have to send them to
Circle 10 Council to be approved and they
will send it back to me. Then you may arrange a time and place for
your eagle board or review.
Sorry about this inconvenience. This is the national policy that
Circle 10 has been avoiding but will now
have to use like the rest of the country.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Note for 2012:
Starting Jan 2012 you will need to use the new Eagle Project workbook.
If you have already started using
the old workbook you may finish with that book. Those starting after
Jan 1 will need to use the new workbook.
You cannot alter or change the wording or format of this book. The
easier way may be to use the PDF that is
fillable on your computer. You can type in information into it.
Or print out the PDF and hand write in the information.
Instructions for time extensions for earning the Eagle Badge.
Instructions for Special Needs scouts to adjust their requirements.
Alternate Eagle MB Plan for scouts with disabilities. This form should be filled out and
forwarded to me to take to Council Meeting for approval. This allows the boy to substitute cub scout achievements and boy scout
MBs that he is physically not capable of doing. It will allow him to continue to work on his eagle past 18yr.

The 2011 Coordinator for Western Star MB College was
Lydia Perkins and we hope she will do it this year.
