Scouts earned the Rank on the same day so a decision was made to make it a joint ceremony.

Jonathan Darraugh II is from Weatherly. He is the son of Jonathan and Kerisa Darraugh. His project was to build from scratch a meeting table, display unit and bookshelf for the Weatherly Area Museum to provide better furniture for them to store their articles and books in and to have a table large enough for their meetings and education sessions.

Daniel Kernan of White Haven, son of Tina and Joseph Kernan, performed his Eagle Project in Hickory Run State Park. He rebuilt a section of the Shades of Death trail where the trail comes up a slope from the water level to the roadway. He constructed a curving staircase of timber, stone and earth to make the climb safer and easier for hikers in the park.

Both Scouts have been active in the troop for years, rising in rank while serving in leadership roles. Both are members of the Scouting Honor Camper Society, the Order of the Arrow, and helped both their communities with many other service projects in addition to their Eagle projects. The scouts were recognized for their accomplishments by Congressman Matt

Cartwright, State Representative Doyle Hefley, Carbon County Commissioner Rocky Ahner, the Marine Corps League and representatives from White Haven Borough, White Haven Lions Club, the Weatherly Area Museum and Minsi Trails Council BSA.
