Cameron our Eagle Scout.


Cameron received his rank of Eagle Scout on December 26th 2007, one day after his 18th Birthday. He was given the extra day because his Birthday is on Christmas Day. Even though he pushed it to the very last day he was determined to get it done and he did. He never gave up and we are so proud. Cameron's Court of honor will be sometime in August 2008.


Here we are proud parents and the scouting board with our Eagle Scout. The board wanted to know what his project was so he told them about it. So here is his project, he worked hard on it with his dad and other scouts and leaders.

Cameron decided to refurbish the historical sign at The lake in Spring Lake. It was extremly weather worn, and lettering was starting to peel off.



Here is the before picture of the sign. This sign stands in front of our local lake right on the main road thru Spring Lake, so it is a sign that is very visible. The other thing is this is a historical site and so Cameron had to go thru some different avenues to get the permission he needed. Utah county comissioner of historical sites gave him the Ok once he knew it would be done in a professional manner.

First things first, we feed the scouts a great breakfast to give them the energy to help Cameron with the sign. Plus it made them want to come to help out. We know how to finesse.





Cameron showed his leadership skills in instucting the scouts where and what they could do to help.


Here the scouts are priming and sanding the back of the sign.




Cameron is helping Tom, Glenn's fellow teacher in the Automotive Dept work on the final lettering for the sign.It's really starting to come together now.
