EAGLE SCOUT
Calumet Council
2014 Eagle Class
The first Eagle Scout medal was awarded
in 1912 to Arthur Rose Eldred, a 17-yearold member of Troop 1 of Rockville Centre, Long Island, New York. Eldred was
notified that he was to be awarded the
rank of Eagle Scout in a letter from Chief
Scout Executive James West, dated August 21, 1912. Since then, more than 2
million Scouts have earned the rank. In
1982, 13-year-old Alexander Holsinger,
of Normal, Illinois, was recognized as the
one-millionth Eagle Scout, and Anthony
Thomas of Lakeville, Minnesota was the
two-millionth in 2009.
