EAGLE SCOUT LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION INSTRUCTIONS

Instructions to the Scout:

Everyone you listed on your Eagle application in Requirement #2 should write a recommendation letter.

The only reference that may be omitted is “Employer” if you do not have a job.

For the “Religious” reference, the “Religious Leader” is the leader. This would be your priest, minister,

rabbi, or primary clergy person of your faith. If you do not belong to a faith community, your parent

must provide the religious reference letter which describes how you demonstrate your Duty to God.

A Recommendation Letter is confidential and is NOT to be returned directly to you by the writer.

You should provide your references with the 2-page Recommendation form and a stamped envelope

addressed to:

Mr. Randy McCartney

BSA Lighthouse District Advancement Chair

Att: Eagle Scout Board of Review

50 High Street

Guilford, CT 06437

A District Advancement Committee representative will bring your recommendation letters to your Eagle

Board of Review.

Please inform your references of any deadlines for submitting your recommendation letter. Ideally, the

letters should be written and sent within 2 weeks of your request to be available for your Eagle Board of

Review.

Instructions to the Unit Committee:

Please note that no letters are to be sent directly to the Eagle candidate and none will be given to the

–

Scout after the Eagle Board of Review. As to references contacted or transmission of letters

“The

Scout may assist with this but that is the limit of his participation. He is not to be responsible for follow-

through or any other aspect of this process.” [BSA Guide to Advancement – Section 9.0.1.7].

If you have any questions, please contact a member of the Lighthouse District Advancement Committee.
