In what may be a Troop 17 first, three scouts completed their boards of review for Eagle Scout on the same night! Joseph Cavanaugh, Kyle Svenson and RJ Shanteler , all from the same patrol, earned their Eagle Scout rank at Boards of Review at St. Mary's church in Norton on March 22, 2017.
Joseph Cavanaugh's project navigated the complexities of the town's Conservation Commission to prepare a walking trail in Memorial Park. The project involved clearing nearly a half mile of brush (including poison ivy and thorny weeds) through some wetland area. The wetlands gave Joseph a first-hand look at the difficulty building in those areas. His new walking trail will provide much enjoyment to those using the town's Council on Aging and the public library, as it links those areas to Memorial Park.
Kyle Svenson's project created a recreation area for the Mansfield Fish & Game Association. His team set up picnic tables, benches and a fire pit. he Fish & Game Association encourages the development of archery, fishing and shooting skills, supports wildlife and open space conservation and provides youth programs and other outdoor recreation opportunities.
RJ Shanteler saw a problem at his place of worship, and tackled it. RJ recognized that Temple Chayai Shalom in Easton had a storage issue, so he and his team built a storage shed and shelving to help.
Let's hear it for these three fine Eagle Scouts on achieving Scoutings' highest rank!
