William
Lindsay Earns the Eagle Scout Award
(January 10,
2006) William Clyde Lindsay is Troop 45's newest Eagle Scout.
He was presented the Eagle Scout award at a special ceremony held in
his honor on December 14, 2005. The Eagle award is the Boy Scout's
highest honor awarded to a youth, and only about 4 percent of the
boys who enter the Scouting program ever earn this award.
As part of the requirements for Eagle Scout, William was required to
complete a community service leadership project. For his project,
William planned and led the effort to repair and paint the exterior
of a meeting lodge for the Girl Scouts, located in Spencer, North
Carolina.
William graduated last year from Olympic High School and is
currently a freshman at North Carolina State University.
Troop 45 is sponsored by Central Steele Creek Presbyterian Church
and is led by Lynn Snuggs. Visit the troop web site at
