Congratulations to Joe!
Joe Huot had his Eagle Ceremony at the December Court of Honor. It's a wonderful accomplishment that took effort and perseverance on Joe's part! The rank of Eagle is one to be proud of as it signifies a Scout's commitment to make the most of himself. He learns and practices leadership, service to others while gaining new skills and experiences. Being an Eagle Scout can open many doors for young men. Congratulations Joe!
Troop Scholarship for Post High School Education
Applications are now being accepted for any Scout that is a sophomore or above. B average is needed to apply and financial need is not required. This spring a $1,000 scholarship will be awarded to an outstanding Scout from Troop 33. To borrow from Wayne Gretzky -- "you miss 100% of the shots you don't take." Talk to Dave for an application.
