Eagle, Summit, Quartermaster and Gold Congratulation Letters
Although most frequently, letters are requested for new Eagle Scouts, the
list below can and should be used when requesting letters of commendation for
Venturers who have earned the Summit Award, and for Sea Scouts who have earned
the Quartermaster Rank, and for Girl Scouts who have earned the GSUSA
Gold Award. When sending letters for those awards, please in your explanation,
don't include phrases like "The Summit Award is the Venturing version of Eagle"
or "Quartermaster is the Sea Scout equivalent of Eagle" or "the Gold award is
the Girl Scout version of Eagle Scout". Summit and Quartermaster, and the Gold
Award are their own awards and what should be stressed are the skills and leadership
experiences gained by earning them!
When sending notes to people asking for letters of commendation, please include:
- The Scout or Venturer's FULL NAME (not just "Sparky" or "Jimmy" but "Samuel
James Jackson" or "James Ray Morrison")
- The UNIT NUMBER and COUNCIL NAME (the Unit number is that number his left
shoulder; the Council name appears on the patch right above it), and
- A SHORT DESCRIPTION of the Service Project led by and completed as a requirement
for the award.
- It is also courteous to include a self addressed stamped envelope when writing
to private individuals or organizations. That is usually not necessary when
writing to government officials.
Many people writing a letter to acknowledge an Eagle Scout, Quartermaster, or
Gold or Summit recipient, would also like to know how the person earned the badge.
But don't only discuss the Service Project. Give some information about the Scout
and his or her activities. This gives them more than just a "congratulations, Johnny,
on your achievement" line and also can allow the letter to be a bit more personalized
than boilerplate letters. In this regard, here is what our resident Commissioner
"Andy McCommish" wrote on his "Ask Andy" blog after he got a request for a letter
to a new Eagle Scout.
|
I've just received another letter inviting me to a court
of honor for your troop's newest Eagle Scout - the most recent in a string
of several hundred in the past ten years alone. Your letter lauds this Scout's
service project and gives great detail of all the work done. Inevitably,
however, and like all others preceding it, the letter - except for time,
date, and location - stops there. To the uninitiated, it would seem that
attaining the rank of Eagle solely involves a community service project
of some kind. To others, including myself, there's disappointment: It's
as if the coffee-after-dessert is all I get; there's no mention of the preceding
courses all of which have led up to this.
Where, I wonder, is a description of what this young man
has learned about citizenship and his role in his community, nation, and
the world at large. Will I not learn that he's now skilled in first aid
and has the ability to save life on both land and in the water, or has developed
and carried out a mobilization plan for his troop in an emergency situation?
How many miles has he hiked and backpacked; how many camping trips has he
taken, and where has he gone? How has he developed and honed his communication
and leadership skills both among his peers who have elected him to lead,
and how has he learned to be a responsible team member when called upon?
This young man has led his patrol and troop in significant
ways for extended periods, yet I learn nothing of these roles. Nor do I
learn how he has developed his physical and mental fitness in this preparation
for his future life. Can he handle a canoe? A sailboat? Can he survive in
the wilderness by himself - a skill few outside of Scouting know anything
at all about? Does he know firearms safety? Has he grown as a member of
his own family? Does he know how to protect himself and other youth, if
necessary, from bullying and other forms of abuse? Can he manage money and
a budget? What does he know of ecology and - today's buzzword - sustainability?
What explorations into subjects only Scouts get to choose from has he made?
Does he know what to do if confronted by a snake bite, or contact with a
poisonous plant? Does he know the flora and fauna of the region he lives
in? Has his service project developed not only his leadership skills but
also his knowledge of project planning, including "sweating the details."
How does he live the Scout Oath and Law in his daily life? What are his
aspirations for his own future?
Tell me about his life beyond Scouting. What has he accomplished
for himself scholastically and in team and individual sports? What of his
religious life?
Has he been recommended for this rank by his teachers or
principal, his employers, his religious mentor?
All of this and more ... absent. Instead of understanding
the "whole" of this fine young man, I'm left with impressions of wood and
gravel and plantings and such. There's no "three-dimensional image" of him
here; he's done community service and that's all your letter tells me. Please
tell me more. Please honor everything that this young man has accomplished
for himself. Make that image "3D"!
|
Remember that the purpose of a congratulatory letter is to honor the Scout and
that each person you write may be getting many, many requests. This is not a race
or a contest to see who can get the most letters. Often a few letters are more meaningful
than a scrapbook full of letters that ends up on a shelf. Sometimes the best thing
is a letter or two from an admired prominent person, a state official like a governor,
a local official like a mayor, and letters from local prominent people that the
Scout knows or who know the Scout.
Please pick and choose so that people who are willing to write a letter do not
get overwhelmed and decide to stop accepting requests.
In the tables below, incumbents who will be leaving office as a result
of an election, resignation, or other reasons, are shown in RED,
while "Acting", "Elect", or newly appointed (but, as yet unconfirmed or installed)
officials are shown in GREEN.
According to protocol professionals in the United States, The Honorable
is a courtesy title used with the names of current and retired high-ranking federal
and state officials and judges, and with some local officials, when introducing
them, and when addressing correspondence to them. Furthermore, The Honorable
is always used before a full name, and should NOT be shortened. nor should it be
combined with other honorifics, ranks or titles in the USA.
So The Honorable (Full Name), (Office Held) would be correct
while The Honorable Dr, (Full Name), (Office Held) , or Hon. Gen (Full
Name), (Office Held) would both be incorrect, In the table of addresses below,
we have not included the courtesy title, but you are encouraged to use it when you
send letters to those individuals.
The list below is, to our best
knowledge, accurate as of December 23, 2018. However, we have replaced the
names of Governors leaving office early in 2019, and included their replacements
who were elected in the 2018 general election. We have also removed the
names of Cabinet members and other officials who have recently resigned

US Government Officials
Due to security measures which can delay receipt
of letters sent through the US Mail,
we recommend using online forms or e-mail whenever possible when contacting
US Government officials.
For Congressional offices, mail to local offices frequently get a faster
response than mail sent to the Capitol.
