Eagle94-A1 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 What's up with the delay in Eagle Certificates? If they are waiting for the president's signature, why not use the one form the previous term? And if it is a design issue, why were they not updated when the medals and patches were updated. Those have been available for some time now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OaklandAndy Posted Thursday at 12:03 PM Share Posted Thursday at 12:03 PM My guess is that National always puts the cart before the horse. I've noticed that since I started volunteering in 2017. It happens frequently that now it's the new norm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle94-A1 Posted Friday at 01:44 PM Author Share Posted Friday at 01:44 PM I find it amusing that the stuff that cannot be easily made, i.e. patches and medals, have been done and out for a while, but the item that can be easily laser printed we are waiting on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skeptic Posted Friday at 07:52 PM Share Posted Friday at 07:52 PM Who knows; it may relate to the person involved and his idiosyncrasies. Many Scouters had harsh words for him during his last administration, especially after the Jambo. We will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BinTharDunThat Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago (edited) One must wonder if, in addition to the other areas of focus, there is a perception within the Administration that a name change in the name of inclusiveness, as manifested on the new certificates and the new patch, is indicative of DEI/woke paradigms and slowing any assistance is a method to create angst before leveraging abandonment of such updates.

Eagle94-A1 Posted 12 hours ago Author Share Posted 12 hours ago Well, one troop I know created their own Eagle Scout certificate template that looks like the real certificate. Maybe I can get a copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle1993 Posted 11 hours ago Share Posted 11 hours ago My understanding is that there is always a delay between administrations. If there is an issue with Trump's approval, perhaps this is a good opportunity to move away from the President of the US as the honorary President of Scouting America and have someone else serve in that role. David Montgomery? Mike Rowe? I'm not sure if there is an issue, but it would be interesting to see someone who is actually a former scout and exemplifies scouting ideals as the honorary president vs politicians. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
