Scouting is a family affair, no more so than on Permit and Society Courts in Herndon, VA, where ten boys grew up as friends and next-door neighbors, and where all became Eagle Scouts in Troop 1570, chartered to the Clearview Elementary School PTA in Herndon. Their Eagle boards of review span a fifteen-year period.
Through all their Scouting years, the Scouts’ five families shared not just boundaries to their yards but a deep bond that comes from a belief in the mission and value of Scouting. The Scouts’ parents were active through those all those years as registered leaders and participating parents in Pack 1570 and Troop 1570. Now the families are celebrating the notable accomplishments of their Scouts.
