This is a Council requirement, as well as having an original with signatures for the Workbook. Once you have completed your Proposal, you will need drop it off at the Scout Center, 2032 Thomasville Road. Your Project Workbook will be reviewed, and any changes, revisions and/or additions will be noted, and you will be notified of the status of your book. If all changes meet the board’s approval it will be signed and approved by the SRAC Eagle Board, and you can begin your project. Do not start on your project until it is approved, however, fund raising may begin prior to approval.
