Eagle Scout Celebrates Hornaday Award on Antarctica Expedition

16710984585_fccac2dacc_hIn celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Hornaday Award, Eagle Scout and Hornaday Award recipient Robert Marks has embarked on an adventure many could only dream of, yet yesterday, his dreams became a reality. Marks, along with 75 other participants from across the globe and famed polar explorer Sir Robert Swan, are taking on Antarctica for the 2041 International Antarctica Expedition. This 13-day program kicked off in Ushuaia, Argentina yesterday and today the crew is on its way to the icy continent.

But this is just a small taste of what’s to come for Marks’ adventures. Learn why Marks is heading to Antarctica and read more about this Eagles’ incredible journey on Scouting Newsroom!
