An Eagle in Our Midst

Becoming an Eagle Scout is not an easy task, especially for a sixteen year-old. Caleb Little, a student at our beloved school, has accomplished this laborious task. He began cub scouts in first grade and has been a scout ever since. In order to achieve Eagle status he had to attain twenty-one merit badges, display Scout Spirit through the Boy Scout Oath and Law, do service projects, and display abilities of leadership (which is much easier said than done). Caleb would even call this hobby a career. Although it is extremely physically and mentally demanding, it is very rewarding in the long run. Along with becoming an Eagle Scout, he has had many memorable experiences such as canoeing in Canada and some valuable life lessons like survival and team/morale boosting skills. In addition to what this will add to his college application, he has achieved the ultimate boy scout honor. Congratulations Caleb! You have reached the mountain top. Remember that once an Eagle always an Eagle. This accomplishment is something that you will cherish the rest of your life.

Ask Alex

Due to technical difficulties, I was not able to answer last weeks questions. This week I will be answering questions from the post two weeks ago. Chris Lanham asked "What is your take on the current economic situation." I say that the econmy is (in lack of a better phrase) in the toilet. And, Chris, I think we need more field trips. Josh Crouse asked "Do you like peaches?" I think peaches are vile and disgusting members of the fruit family. Two weeks ago Janice asked if comments can be posted anonymously. Yes they can. Msportsguy1230 asked a few bizarre questions. He asked "What is the best fighting game ever and why?" and "are pokemon real?" I am a fan of the Call of Duty series. And, to answer his second question, Pokemon are as real as unicorns. Post your questions as comments and I will try to answer them next week!
