Our First Eagle


On November 9, 2004 Benjamin passed his Eagle Board of Review. Benjamin led 11 Scouts/Parents in building a “Tree House” for the Nursery at Christ Lutheran Church, his home church. Benjamin sold shingles to raise the funds needed to fund his project. Everyone who purchased a shingle had their name stenciled on it as a remembrance of their support. A total of 194 hours were spent on his project. Benjamin is the first Eagle Scout from Troop 167 since 1987. A special ceremony was held in Benjamin’s honor on January 2, 2005 at Christ Lutheran Church to award Benjamin his Eagle Scout Rank.
