Pasadena, California
On the evening of September 30, 2024, Troop 21 held its Court of Honor ceremony. That night we honored scouts earning Ranks and Merit Badges, as well as three fellow scouts who earned the rank of Eagle Scout, the highest rank attainable. Such a rank requires leadership, giving back to your community, and advanced knowledge of scouting. Our three Eagle Scouts, Anton Potts, Daniel Shopbell and James Shopbell, were all required to complete an eagle project. Anton fixed up and built benches for the Arroyo Seco fly fishing pond. Daniel loves band and decided to clean up the Marshall Fundamental School band room that had become a dumping ground during covid. James had a passion for band, and also cleaned up the band room on August 9 and 10, 2024, following renovations. Many of our scouts ranked up, were awarded badges, and enjoyed the ice cream bar that followed the ceremony.
