Your Eagle Book is a binder of material that represents you and who you are. It usually is 1-2 inches thick with plastic sleeve on front so that you are able to put in a cover sheet. Here is what needs to be in it and the order of positioning. 1. Eagle Scout Rank Application. Full legal name and social security number required. On back of application only list the leadership position held for first six months after earning Life rank. 2. State of Ambitions and Life Purposes (Req. #6) 3. List of leadership positions held in your troop. 4. Eagle Scout Leadership Service Project Workbook (No. 18-927A) with all signatures. (3 hole punched or broken down into plastic sleeve holders.) 5. Hours you spent on project. 6. Hours spent by others. (Total of #8 plus #9 must be a minimum of 100 hours.) 7. Financial Statement 8. Materials and tools used. 9. Changes. (The District Representative must approve any changes that affect 25% or more of the project before continuing the project.) 10.

List of honors and awards. The purpose of the book is to have a clear overall image of the scout. What have you done in your life so far and what kind of leader you are. It is good to see a well-rounded scout who is active in the community, family, chu7rch, sports, as well as scouts. The primary purpose of the Eagle Scout Board of Review is to establish that the candidate planned, developed, and gave leadership to his project. Use whatever means you need to properly demonstrate these points.
