Thirteen Local Youth Achieve Scout Rank
Thursday, January 30, 2025


From building playgrounds that spark children's joy to preserving Civil War history, thirteen remarkable young leaders have left an indelible mark on Rutherford County through their journey to Eagle Scout rank. The Trail of Tears District of Scouting America announces these outstanding youth have not only achieved Scouting's highest honor but have collectively invested 1,760 hours in transforming our community. Their service projects, ranging from international military support to local environmental conservation, demonstrate the extraordinary impact young people can have when guided by the values of leadership, service, and civic responsibility. Each of these new Eagle Scouts has written their own chapter in a legacy of excellence, completing extensive leadership training and earning at least 21 merit badges while developing projects that will benefit their neighbors for years to come.

Those who have achieved this honor:
Nathan Spurgeon
