Calling all Eagles

Eagle Scouts of all ages and council's we are hosting a fall Gathering of Eagles event to be held on the 20 ^th of October at Big Daddy's Restaurant on Jimmie Dyess Parkway beginning at 6:30pm.

There is no cost for the event but everyone is encouraged to eat dinner in support of the Restaurant since they are kind enough to donate the space.

The purpose of the meeting is to have fun and fellowship while discussing what the future direction of the newly formed chapter of the council Eagle Association will be. If you are not a member but would like to be the only requirement is that you are an Eagle Scout it doesn't matter when or where you earned you Eagle.

If you can't make the meeting and would like to have more information please email the council service center and we will add you to the distribution list for future events.

Dear Scouts and Scouters:

At the 2017 National Jamboree, you can experience all the thrills of extreme outdoor sports, tons of interactive exhibits, a day of local community service across West Virginia, awesome arena shows and fireworks, and of course wi-fi throughout.

As the Georgia-Carolina Council begins to plan for the 2017 NationalJamboree more than 2 years before the big event, we want you to plan to go with us to join 35,000+ other Scouts and Leaders for 10 days of adventure.

The dates of the jamboree are July 19-28, 2017 and the fee (including travel to/from WV, pre-Jamboree tour, shakedown camping trip, the jamboree fee, 10 days of meals, and Troop/Patrol gear such as tents, cots, etc.) is estimated to be $1500-1650. While many of the final costs are still unknown and unknowable at this early date it's not too early to begin planning. (We will keep everyone updated on fee estimates as we learn more)

Scouting Youth (Boy Scouts and make/female Venturers) are encouraged to apply, subject to minimum age requirements. A number of Adult unit leader positions are open, too.

Youth and Adults can find additional details and need to register online CLICK HERE AND also contact the Georgia-Carolina Council Office to put your name on the list to make your $100 deposit and begin making regular payments. Look for information soon on a local payment plan and dates.

Please contact the Council Office at 706-733-5277 for additional information and details.
