- Our troop has the Indian ceremonial team from the local OA lodge come out
- and perform an Eagle ceremony in full regalia. The team has a written
- script that they follow. I was the head of this team for several years,
- and helped to perform a countless number of Eagle ceremonies. We never
- failed to get compliments from scouters, both young and old alike. A
- point of note is that, I wrote the ceremony that they presently used and
- have used for the past three years. If anyone has an interest in
- obtaining this script, simply drop me an electric line, and I would be
- happy to mail it out them.
