Our Eagle Scouts
There were 10 Eagle Scouts in the senior class of 2011. Those scouts crossed over into the Troop in 2004, with 6 other scouts, for a class of 16. 63% of them became Eagle Scouts: Ben Cox, Sam Cox, Elliot Louthen, Austin McKain, Ben Mitchell, Dennis Potamianos, Brian Robertson, Fitz Robling, Nick Rohm, and Cody Vitek. Troop 24’s cumulative Eagle Scout rate (number of scouts attaining Eagle, divided by the number who started in that class as Boy Scouts) is currently 41% (records for 4 years).
Nationally, the most commonly reported statistic is 4%. This number is calculated differently, by taking the total number of scouts attaining Eagle during the year, divided by the total number of registered boy scouts for that year.
We know that at least 72 scouts from Troop 24 have become Eagle Scouts; however, we likely do not have a complete list. Our Eagle Scouts are listed at: http://troop24riverside.com/our-eagle-scouts/
