Eagle Scout Certificate of Recognition

Thank You Scouts for Your Service


The NPS prioritizes working with partner organizations, such as the Boy Scouts of America (BSA), to extend the benefits of natural and cultural resource conservation and outdoor recreation at national park sites.

In addition to these opportunities, the NPS would like to recognize Scouts and their achievements and/or accomplishments related to the environment and/or conservation.

Scouts who have completed their requirements for an Eagle Scout award are eligible to receive a certificate of recognition from the National Park Service.

Earn a Certificate


You can go ahead and download the Eagle Scout Certificate of Recognition. Please note that use of the certificate is based on the honor system, as the certificate should only be downloaded after achieving the Eagle Scout status.

Scouts can also earn a certificate or patch by participating in the Resource Stewardship Scout Ranger Program that invites Scouts to participate in educational and/or volunteer service projects at national park sites to spark their awareness of national parks, and learn more about protecting our nation’s natural and cultural resources.

For more information, visit the National Park Service's Resource Stewardship Scout Ranger Program page.

Your continued interest in and support of the National Park Service is appreciated!
