The Boy Scouts are celebrating a very important milestone.

A celebration dinner was held at the Riverside Convention Center to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Eagle Scout award.

More than 350 scouting supporters came out to honor the occasion. Mayor Tom Richards is also an eagle scout himself. He spoke at the event.

The first Eagle Scout award was presented to Arthur Eldred in 1912.
