Share your Eagle Scout service project ideas

Looking for ideas for a good Eagle Scout service project? Wondering what type of Eagle Scout projects that other Scouts are doing? Use this message board to share ideas or tell others about your Eagle project.

Remember, all Eagle Scout service projects are important, but no two are exactly alike. It’ll be up to you to find the right project for you, but these might help you get thinking.

We’ve started the conversation with six examples from the March 2010 issue of Boys’ Life magazine. Take a look and then share your own.

  1. Do you guys think that creating works of art (painting or drawing) and distributing them to local businesses and the schools in my town would be approved?

  2. Do you guys think that building a new pinewood derby track for the cub scouts would be approved?

    • I do not think the project can benefit the BSA, but maybe it would be approved if it’s done as a donation to the Pack’s chartering organization (church, school, etc). Good luck!

    • dude it doesn’t have to benefit the BSA

  3. my eagle scout project was building bird houses at my local elementary school

    I filled over one hundred shoe boxes with toiletries, small toys and back to school products with the help of about twenty people at a packing party. I solicited donations through the congregation at church. Through Operation Christmas Child, the wrapped and filled shoe boxes will go to boys and girls ages 2-14 in countries affected by war, famine and/or poverty. National Collection Week is November 18-25th.

  6. Is there a sample letter or template available that I can use to ask local businesses for donations of money or materials for my Eagle Project?

    My Eagle project is a concrete barbecue area with a privacy fence around it for a homeless shelter. I’m building it because it will really bring the people in the shelter together with fellowship and what’s better way to do that than with food?

  8. What about a spaghetti dinner?
    Would that work as an eagle scout project?

    I have constructed a trellis at a local park. It took 6 months to complete it and it was around $32,000 to build
