So here is the story on the 12 Inch Eagle Scout Medal.  I bought a collection from a Scouter who was active in Augusta, GA and the Charleston, SC area.  His dad had been a professional Scouter.  In one of the boxes there was this intricately made giant Eagle Medal.  When I posted it to the Scout Patch Collectors as a whatzit I got lots of comments (and offers to purchase) but no firm answer.  So I have decided to give it away in my first ever Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter Sweepstakes.

• Antique Boy Scout Uniform Belt - Early 1900's
• Boy Scout Scouting Pamphlets & Manuals
• Wahinkto Lodge 199 T Shirt F8853 BSA
• Ahtuhquog Lodge 540 Chenille Patch
• Baden Powell 1962 Collectors' Card

As a reader of the Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter I invite you to enter my free drawing to win a 12 Inch Eagle Scout Medal.  This 1-of-A-kind piece stumped collectors in the Scout Patch Collectors Facebook Group.  Rather than sell it I've decided to turn it into a fun free giveaway using software that will select a winner at random from everyone that enters.

All you have to do in order to enter the drawing is follow the link to my Scouting Hot Finds Newsletter Facebook page and enter your name and email address.  Once you submit the software keeps track of everyone and when the sweepstakes closes in a few weeks it will randomly pick a winner.  It's all on auto-pilot and it meets all of Facebook's rules.  Plus with me I want to treat all my readers fair as can be so I'm not drawing names out of a hat - it's all being done by a computer.
