Becoming an Eagle Scout is the type of distinction that any Boy Scout dreams of achieving. It requires years of leadership training, commitment to the organization and a willingness to serve the community to have an opportunity to earn this honor. At the end of the process is the completion of the Eagle Project, which requires leadership as well as commitment to seeing the task through.
Commemorating the Project and the Scout
Some Eagle Projects lend themselves to onsite commemoration. Buy Eagle Scout plaques online to honor the design and construction of a playground, a public drinking fountain or a park bench. Options include cast bronze and cast aluminum. It is common to display the Eagle Scout’s name, the troop number, the year and the names of those who contributed to the project. A finishing touch is the Boy Scout logo.
Some projects are a bit more difficult to memorialize with a plaque. These include volunteer efforts involving public landscaping projects, assistance to the homeless and similar activities. In this setting, a plaque with a ground stake provides the information. The product is then displayed in the general area where the project took place. Doing so not only inspires others to follow suit but also serves to provide locals with a reminder of the good works Boy Scouts perform for the neighborhood.
Online Orders Make Shopping a Snap
At Signs & More, we routinely work with proud parents and community members who seek to erect a plaque that tells the store of another successful Eagle Project. Since we ship Eagle Scout plaques nationwide, there is no need to look for a local provider who may or may not have experience with the design of this product.
Rather, these customers rely on us and our proven record of designing and manufacturing attractive plaques for those on the Eagle Scout track. Online shopping also gives you the freedom to order the plaque ahead of time, which ensures that you have it ready to go when the aspiring Scout finishes the project. It is not unusual for grandparents to order this product well in advance of their grandson’s completion of the job at hand.
Receiving the product with the understanding that these family members had so much faith in the young man that they would commission a plaque sometimes years in advance is one of the best gifts a freshly minted Eagle Scout could receive. Occasionally, it is also the community that wants to honor one of its own; in this setting, it may be a family friend who calls us to put together the display.
