The Greencastle-Antrim High School 2016 graduating class is proud to present 15 Eagle Scouts, an unprecedented accomplishment.

What makes it even greater is that the senior scouts, from various Troops in the area, have assisted each other in attaining this monumental achievement.

Each Scout had to earn 11 specific merit badges, plan, execute and complete a project then appear before an Eagle Scout Board of Review to confirm or deny his project.

These seniors have made lifelong memories in their scouting career through community service, summer camps, camporees, fundraisers and high adventure camps.
