We have a new Eagle Scout

Alex Purvis recently received the Eagle Scout award which is the highest rank attainable in  the Boy Scouting program of the Boy Scouts of America.   

  Since its introduction in 1911, the Eagle Scout rank has been earned by more than two million young men.  The title of Eagle Scout which Alex holds is held for life, thus giving rise to the phrase "Once an Eagle, always an Eagle."

Alex was required to earn at least 21 merit badges and demonstrating the Scout Spirit through the Boy Scout Oath and Law, service, and leadership.  This included his extensive service project with designing, planning, organizing, leading, and managing the construction of a handcapped accessable fishing dock.  Alex was presented with a medal and a badge that visibly recognizes his accomplishments in the Scouting program.  He can continue to earn Eagle Palms, which are awarded for completing additional tenure, leadership, and merit badge requirements.
