The Eagle Board is a district board of Adult Eagle Scouts who review and
approve Eagle Projects.  Each applicant must present a plan for an Eagle
Project prior to any work being done on the project.  After the completion
of the project, the applicant shall present himself to the board in full uniform
with the required documentation for final review.  Only after approval by
this board will a Scout be awarded the rank of Eagle Scout.

The Eagle Board is made up of 2 or more Adult Eagle Scouts who are BSA
leaders.  The Eagle Board is usually chaired by Shane Stevens, or a senior
