ARSSAR Eagle Scout of the Year Matthew Mabry

March 21, 2021|The Arkansas Society of the Sons of the American Revolution|

Blytheville First United Methodist Church is proud to announce that Matthew Mabry of Troop 104 has been awarded the title of โ€œArkansas Eagle Scout of the Yearโ€ by the Arkansas Society, Sons of the American Revolution. Matthew is the first member of Troop 104 to receive this distinguished recognition, which comes with a check for $1000.00.



Matthew was selected because of his character, his service, the scope of his Eagle Scout project, and the essay he submitted to the SAR. Matthewโ€™s essay on Revolutionary War patriot Nathanael Greene was graded a perfect score by the judge, a first for an Arkansas Eagle Scout.

Matthew is an active Senior at Gosnell High School. He looks forward to attending a four-year university in the fall, and he aspires to become a research scientist. He says โ€œItโ€™s important to me that my work benefits humankind. It would be my dream to have my name remembered in the world of science.โ€

When asked about his future, Matthew also says โ€œI want to support the troop that nurtured and supported me in my path to Eagle.โ€ He looks forward to helping younger scouts achieve their best.

Please join us in recognizing Matthew and everyone in troops 104 and 316. Mark your calendar for our Scouting Ministries Sunday: February 21st.
