Over the years, the Closter Nature Center has been the recipient of projects completed by Boy Scouts attempting to become "Eagle Scouts". This recognition is not come by easily, it is something that the Scouts earn by building skills and learning how to become leaders.

Girls Scouts aspire to the "Gold Award" and are identified as "the dreamers and the doers who take “make the world a better place” to the next level." According to the Girl Scouts organization, the award is "proof that not only can she make a difference, but that she already has."
