Mid-Valley Eagles Soar: Celebrating Scouting's Impact In Salem, OR - April 12, 2024 (Photo) - 03/13/24
SALEM, OR – Mid-Valley Eagles Soar, a celebration of Scouting's community impact, will recognize and honor Eagle Scouts from Marion, Polk, and Linn Counties on Friday, April 12, 2024, at the Willamette Heritage Center in Salem. The social hour and silent auction starts at 5:30 p.m., with an opening program and dinner at 6 p.m. Mid-Valley Eagles Soar is hosted by the Santiam River District of the Cascade Pacific Council.
This year marks the second annual Mid-Valley Eagles Soar event. In addition to celebrating Mid-Valley's most recent Eagle Scouts class and their accomplishments, this event will raise funds to help extend Scouting to more neighborhoods, school communities and towns in the Willamette Valley. Funds from last year's event helped launch Troop 9051 for girls in Lebanon, Pack 584 in Albany, and Pack 7019 in Salem. Over 20 Eagle Scout projects will be showcased around the room to highlight Scouting's community impact.
Grace Parry and Juliette Lloyd, two of Salem's first female Eagle Scouts, will emcee the event. Other scouts presenting include Marshall Morrison, who overcame a disability to earn the rank of Eagle Scout, and 8-year-old Aurora Logan, who will share how Scouting has provided fun adventures and inspired her to become an Eagle Scout. One Eagle Scout will receive the first-ever Mid-Valley Eagles Soar College Scholarship.
This event will feature silent and oral auction items, all donated by local businesses and community leaders. While the event is free to attend, donations are strongly encouraged. All donations support local Scouting programs and are tax deductible. Those interested in attending can RSVP by registering online at:
