Contacts For District Approval and Questions

Your first contact for questions should be your Troop's Eagle Advisor, or your Scoutmaster.  If you have questions that they can not answer, or when you are ready for the approval of the District Advancement Committee (the last signature after you have signatures from the organization, your Scoutmaster, and your unit committee), contact the people below. Note that each district has multiple people, depending on where your troop is located. If you leave a message, be sure to leave your name, troop, phone number, and why you are calling. You should have a parent with you on any phone call and should copy another leader or parent on all emails.
