Eagle Scout
Will Driscoll
The Troop has yet another new Eagle Scout - Will Driscoll
- Eagle Scout #55 (the "double nickel") in Troop history. This makes the
fourth Eagle in 1997, which ties the record for one year; the Troop also
had four Eagles each in 1966 and 1968. Will passed his Board of Review on
October 26th (sneaking in just under the 18th birthday wire); his Honor
Role included:
- 34 Merit Badges
- 66 Nights of Long-term camping
- 39 nights of short-term camping
- 5 summers at Goshen, including a JASM stint in 1996
- 3 High Adventure Treks (Susquehanna River 1992, Daniel Boone and
Philmont)
- 2 50-Miler Awards
- Totin Chip

- BSA Lifeguard Awards

- Troop Guide
Will's Eagle Project was the installation of new shelving and storage
units
in four closets on the first floor of the Parish Center, thereby allowing
all the groups using the upstairs closets to move downstairs - and easing
the transition of the second floor of the Parish Center into the school's
expanded pre-K program.
Will's Board of Review was equally impressive (and Thanks to): Tim
Arthurs,
Hank Dettmar (Patawomeck District Eagle Board), Carl Doughman (Deputy
District Commissioner, Arlington County), Sally McMullen and Jim Smith.
Additional Thanks to one and all who helped with Will's Eagle Project or
assisted with his last few merit badges.
