Troop 1 Eagle Scout Honor Roll

Most Recent Eagle: 12/2023 (95 Eagles since original charter)

The rank of Eagle Scout is the highest rank in Boy Scouts and a great honor. Troop 1 Stow has a much higher than average rate of Eagles; the national norm is that about 4% of all scouts become Eagles, but for us, it is about 10%.

    Just a point of interest; I never heard of my farther, Cliff Wetherbee, referred to as a JR. He may have been, but I don’t think so. Not a big deal, just thought I would mention it.

    Thanks, Craig. I found no reference to a “Jr.” either, so I’ve changed it to “Clifford A.” instead. My guess is that someone wrote it down somewhere like that and it has stayed that way for years. Thanks for the note.

  3. I am an eagle scout. I thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in the scouting program. Especially learning about camping essentials. Lots of valuable skills and fun times!

  4. Joyce Wetherbee says:

    Thanks so much for requesting information about Clifford Wetherbee. We were quite surprised. We are pleased that Keith and Craig Austin Wetherbee were able to give input into their fathers life. We just recently lost Keith and this means alot to find this on the internet. Thanks again. Craig’s wife Joyce December 2012
