Boy Scout Memorial

The Boy Scout Memorial is located in Washington DC. It was erected in dedication to those who have served as a Boy Scout. It is the only memorial in Washington that commemorates a living cause.

The memorial was built using funds that were raised by each Boy Scout unit and donors, the government did not contribute any funding to the memorial. A signed scroll was placed in the pedestal of the statue which features the names of each person who donated funds for the construction of the memorial.

The statue is a bronze construction which consists of three figures; a Boy Scout, a woman and a man. Each of the figures symbolizes an idea of the great and noble forces which are the inspiring background of each Boy Scout as they learn how to become a great man and good citizen.
