Announcing Eagle Scout Jared Young.

Congratulations Jared Young!

Jared has attained the rank of Eagle Scout. His court of honor was held at the St Jude’s Thaddeus Catholic Church on Saturday, August 25th, 2018.

To achieve the rank of Eagle Scout Jared had to Earn the 13 required merit badges and 8 others to have the required number of 21 merit badges, not only did meet the requirements he exceeded them. Along the trail to Eagle Jared had to complete his star project, helping the Art Museum of SE Texas by revitalizing their flower beds, a Life project which was building benches for students at BISD’s Lucas Pre-K School, and last but not least, he completed his Eagle project for which he made equestrian stands and a storage box to be used in therapy for Stable-Spirit located in Vidor, TX. Jared, a member of the “Thunder Cats Patrol” of Troop 122, directed and led his fellow scouts and friends in their efforts to construct these stands to help improve the quality of treatment and training for the horses involved with Stable-Spirit’s therapy. This was a several week undertaking commenced in early June and was completed June 18, 2018. The construction consisted of Cutting, laying out, fitting, and constructing two step boxes and one storage box for use at Stable-Spirit’s facility. Jared Young and his crew put approximately 164 labor hours into the project. Stable-Spirit is delighted with the quality of workmanship undertaken by Jared and his crew and the end result. Stable-Spirit is one of the area’s only equestrian therapy locations assisting children and individuals with special needs through Equine Assisted Psychotherapy.

Mr. Hamilton offered the Eagle Charge, and Mr. Young gave an eloquent summary of Jared’s time in scouts. In a surprising turn of events. Mr. Young thanked Pam and Bob for their help with scouting and Jared presented Mrs. Johnson with a bouquet of flowers. There was a reception that immediately followed.

Again, Congratulations Jared on all your hard work!
