the Eagle Scout Award
(April 15,
2009) Frank Allan Lentz is Troop 45's newest Eagle Scout. Frank was
awarded the Eagle Scout at a special ceremony recently held in his
honor. The Eagle award is the highest award earned by a youth member
of the Boy Scouts, and of all the boys who enter Scouting, only 4
percent earn Eagle Scout.

community service leadership project. For his project, Frank planned
and led the effort to remove old fencing and landscape an area at
his church.
Frank has been a
member of Troop 45 since 2001. He is a recent graduate of Olympic
High School and plans to attend Central Piedmont Community College.
