Puett Eagle Wall
This monument stands in front of the Frank Fickett Scout Training and Service Center, recognizing all who have earned the rank of Eagle in the more than 100 year history of the Capitol Area Council, Boy Scouts of America. Names of future Eagle classes will be added each year.
The Eagle Wall was made possible through a gift from the Nelson Puett Foundation.
