Congratulations to our latest Eagle scouts!

7 scouts completed their trail to Eagle this week - congratulations to Nick, Josh, AJ, Ben, Jon, Tyler, and DJ for their hard work and dedication. The Eagle Board of Reviews were conducted at the Weymouth Heights Club this week over a three day period.
 
These 7 Eagles will be awarded their rank patches on Monday evening at the Troop 2 Court of Honor, 8 PM at the First Church. Our annual Eagle Awards and Recognition banquet is scheduled for May 19th.
 
Some interesting facts
 
- DJ, Jon, and Tyler were the last scouts to cross over from Cubs while Ron Parry was our Scoutmaster.
- Josh and Nick are "second generation" Troop 2 Eagles.
- Mr. Porter awarded his first Eagle to Nick's dad, and his second to Josh's, and presided over their Eagle Boards as well.
- Jon and Tyler are the second members of their family to achieve the Eagle rank from Troop 2
- Ben is the third member of his family to achieve the Eagle rank from Troop 2
- DJ, Jon, Tyler, AJ, Josh and Nick all came to Troop 2 from Pack 73
- Ben is our first Eagle scout who crossed over from Pack 2
- All 7 scouts served as Den Chiefs
 
These 7 scouts have the distinction of earning their rank during the celebration of the 100th year of both Troop 2 and the Eagle rank itself. 
 
Congratulations!
