Those earning an Eagle Scout badge belong to one of the most exclusive clubs in the United States. Currently, only 6% of young people involved in Boy Scouts achieve the rank of Eagle, and only 2 million have reached that level since 1910. It is a unique achievement and an honor for those who complete the rigorous requirements.
So when the Spy heard that Talbot County’s Jack Gonzalez, whom we had interviewed a few years ago after he received a Carson scholarship) had just been presented with his Eagle badge by Troop 190 this summer, he asked him and Talbot County scout leader Pete Lesher (also an Eagle Scout) to stop by the Spy Studio to discuss this rare distinction.
