HARRISON TOWNSHIP — It was an unfortunate year, financially speaking, for Harrison Township, according to Township Treasurer Lawrence Tomenello. The treasurer gave his annual report at the April 10 Board of Trustees meeting, going over various finances from the 20222023 fiscal year. When looking at township pension funds for firefighters See REPORT on page 8A

HARRISON TOWNSHIP SCOUT BUILDS HIS WAY TO EAGLE BY DEAN VAGLIA

dvaglia@candgnews.com
HARRISON TOWNSHIP — Becoming an Eagle Scout is the crowning achievement of anyone who joins the Boy Scouts of America. From the earliest days of Cub Scouts to having the end in sight with every merit badge earned, nobody goes through Scouts without wanting to reach the rarified rank of Eagle. Alexander Shunk recently got there, doing so faster than many with the rank. The 16-year-old from Harrison Township’s Troop 209 claimed Eagle at an age younger than the average Eagle, which Scouting Magazine claimed was just over 17 years old in 2017. “I’ve known a few who got it early or even a bit earlier than me, but for the most part, I’ve seen a big rush at the end,” Shunk said. “I guess I feel relieved because now when I’m Scouting, I can go focus on more of the memories. As I get older, I realize there’s not going to be as much of them anymore.” Shunk began Scouting as a Cub in elementary school, getting the itch to join after attending a presentation. “I didn’t really know much about it when I was a little kid until this gentleman who had a Cub Scout pack at my elementary school took all the boys in the first grade down and he gave a little presentation,” Shunk said. “I came home with a flier, and I told my dad I wanted to do that, and it got me to the point where I am now.” Over his pre-Eagle Scouting career, Shunk did many things, as Scouts tend to do, from attending meetings to weeklong camping trips. One unique part of his time Scouting was attending the Na-

CLINTON TOWNSHIP —Tiffany Saigh had many teachers throughout her childhood, but none of them stood out like her fourth grade teacher. “She was a brand-new teacher,” Saigh said, recalling her childhood. “It was her first year, and she just made things so much fun. She came up with these fun learning games. She was amazing.” Decades later, Saigh, now a teacher at Rainbow Elementary School, has been recognized for being just as outstanding. Saigh is one of the Macomb Intermediate School District’s Outstanding Teachers of 2023. “I was really shocked and speechless, and I felt very honored to receive that (honor),” Saigh said. Crediting her fourth grade teacher as the one of the reasons she became an educator, Saigh went to Oakland University and received a master’s degree for special education. A friend from her college years told Saigh there was a special education position open in the Clintondale district in 2017.

New repair method keeps Macomb drain flowing
See DRAIN on page 12A
0012-2316
MACOMB TOWNSHIP — A new method of drain repair was recently employed by the Macomb County Public Works Office, preventing further damage to a key sewer with minimal interference to locals. Throughout March and April, contractors for the county have been using a spiral-wound pipe repair process to fix a severely deteriorated pipe at the intersection of 21 Mile and Garfield roads in Macomb Township. The deterioration was caused by a chemical buildup due to the high level of sewage flowing through the pipe, which carries waste away from Shelby Township and Macomb Township. “All of this agitation is happening, and it creates hydrogen sulfate,” Macomb County
Public Works Commissioner Candice Miller said. “It is extremely acidic. Sometimes you’ll walk by a sewer grate and you’ll smell an odor — that’s what you’re smelling.” Acidic hydrogen sulfate ate away at the concrete pipe, creating a situation that Miller feared could lead to a sinkhole forming if nothing was done to fix it. Normally, the county would use a slip line repair method, but that would require a massive footprint to bring in new pipe and would involve shutting down the intersection during the installation. A slip line repair would also reduce the sewer’s diameter and slow down the flow, in addition to reducing the flow while work was underway. The Macomb County Public Works Office instead decided to use the spiralwound pipe repair method, requiring less

DNR SAYS TO WATCH FOR FISH KILLS
MICHIGAN — As the last chills of winter thaw away, lakes and rivers might take on a morbid sight. The Michigan Department of Natural Resources is encouraging people to be aware of seasonal “fish kills,” though deceased turtles, frogs, toads, crayfish and other water life will surface as part of the usual winter die-off. “Winterkill is the most common type of fish kill,” said Gary Whelan, DNR Fisheries Division research manager. “As the season changes, it can be particularly common in shallow lakes, ponds, streams and canals. These kills are localized and typically do not affect the overall health of the fish populations or fishing quality.” Ice freezing over water cuts off feeding sources for fish, stressing them and using up oxygen reserves. “Winterkill begins with distressed fish gasping for air at holes in the ice and often ends with large numbers of dead fish that bloat as the water warms,” Whelan said. “Dead fish and other aquatic life may appear fuzzy because of secondary infection by fungus, but the fungus was not the cause of death. The fish actually suffocated from a lack of dissolved oxygen from decaying plants and other dead aquatic animals under the ice.” The public is welcome to report fish kills using the Eyes in the Field website. Such reports are valuable to the DNR’s ability to manage the state’s aquatic resources. If you suspect a fish kill is due to unnatural causes, call the nearest DNR office or Michigan’s Pollution Emergency Alert System at (800) 292-4706.

MACOMB COUNTY — The Michigan Recreation & Park Association has honored Macomb County Public Works Commissioner Candice Miller with its “Local Elected Official Award” for her years of efforts to improve the quality of life for Michigan residents through parks and recreation promotion. “This was an unexpected honor, and I’m very grateful,” Miller said in a statement. “Throughout my career in public service, I’ve always tried to think about quality of life and how we can improve the quality of life for everyone. Even though I might be the one getting the award, members of the association deserve awards for all the things they do for the quality of life for our folks throughout Michigan, each and every day.” Miller’s work toward public parks projects includes securing funds for the Freedom Trail hiking and biking path along Metropolitan Parkway and a focus on improving water quality for boaters and anglers through maintaining and improving sewer infrastructure. “From my perspective, what is so impressive is Candice’s will and drive to get things accomplished, utilizing all of her available resources to do so,” said Kyle Langlois, Sterling Heights parks and recreation director and chairman of the MParks Public Policy Committee. “Her ability to collaborate with all stakeholders to work together for a common purpose is second to none, and she should be viewed as nothing less than a model for other county public works operations to emulate.” The Local Elected Official Award was announced recently at the MParks Conference and Trade Show and was presented to Miller at the April 13 meeting of the Huron-Clinton Metropolitan Authority’s Board of Commissioners, held at the Stony Creek Metropark Nature Center.

reap the rewards of this rise, thanks to breweries macro and micro, things have not gone down entirely smoothly at the hops farms. Michigan hops are uniquely vulnerable to diseases, a problem caused by the high-moisture environment anyone from the Great Lakes State is well aware of. “A lot of our cultivars that are currently available at commercial levels were bred and developed for growers in other parts of the world where they don’t receive as much rain,” said Erin Lizotte, Integrated Pest Management coordinator and senior statewide educator with the Michigan State University Extension. “We’re kind of fighting an uphill battle because we have much wetter weather here in Michigan, so we need our breeding program to develop cultivars that are more at home in those wetter environments and more disease resistant to those diseases we see in wetter environments.” This moisture vulnerability has opened the door for a variety of infections to take hold of the state’s hops crops, the two most pressing being downy mildew and halo blight. “Downy mildew has been around since the beginning,” Lizotte said. “I’d say that’s the disease we have spent the most resources and time on tackling, and I think we’ve gotten to a point where growers are able to manage downy mildew effectively on-farm.” Downy mildew shows up as a fuzzy spore mass on leaves, turning the undersides black. It has proven very resistant to winter conditions, so early-season pruning has proven to be the most effective way of preventing its spread. MSU research has also allowed farmers to begin using plants more resistant to downy mildew infections. While downy mildew is an old problem for hops growers, halo blight is the new troublesome fungus on the scene. MSU researcher Timothy Miles was the first to take notice of the disease in 2018. It shows up as black splotches on leaves and kills See HOPS on page 7A

hops flowers in a way that leaves only parts close to the stem untouched — a green halo atop a pale infected cone. “Since (2018), his lab and crew have been sussing out what (halo blight’s) life cycle looks like, as well as how we can potentially control it in hopyards,” Lizotte said. While the search for the secret to stopping halo blight is ongoing, MSU researchers have made strides in combating hopsaffecting viruses. Carolyn Malmstrom’s work in the field led to her developing hops virus testing protocols, allowing growers to send samples to MSU for testing and diagnosis. As it stands, the surefire way of fighting disease on hops is by preventing it from taking hold. Farms, nurseries and other growers can keep plants and seeds sanitized, infected leaves and flowers can be pruned away and disposed of, and fungicides can be applied to plants to kill whatever lingering disease remains. But Lizotte said the goal of MSU’s scientists is to have plants become naturally immune to common diseases. “I don’t want to call it a Band-Aid, what we’re doing now in terms of fungicides and
issue with being able to get what I need. The quality has been outstanding and year to year very consistent.” Brian Tennis, owner and founder of Hop Alliance, said it was too early to tell how the crops for this year will do, but that last year was one of their best harvests yet because of good weather and other factors. He said their hops weren’t affected by diseases last year. “Fortunately, not for us,” Tennis said. “We’re up right up in the Leelanau (Peninsula), like right around the 45th Parallel, so we really haven’t seen a lot of the damages that
some of the other farmers in the state have.” Lizotte says MSU researchers have been involved in studying hops since “day one” of the plant’s return to the Mitten State in the 2000s, planting the seeds for what has become a strong partnership between the growing industry and academia. “The partnership between the university and the industry is really critical to both of us,” Lizotte said. “We really take our lead from the industry on what their priority needs are. Without the industry of research at MSU, I don’t think we would have a hops industry in Michigan.”

cultural management practices, but we’re also really hopeful that, down the road, we can start to transition to cultivars that are just more at home and happy growing in Michigan,” Lizotte said. Until then, frequent vegetation management and other prevention methods are the best way of ensuring large, quality crop yields. Todd Parker, the head brewer at Rochester Mills Beer Co., said they go through Michigan hops providers when they can and that the state of Michigan has a good hop industry. “Definitely knowing your supplier is important,” Parker said. “A lot of the suppliers are good about keeping the diseased hops out of the system.” Jeremey Lewis, the brewer and coowner of the Copper Hop Brewing Co. in St. Clair Shores, and co-owner Ryan Balicki said in emails that they couldn’t speak about the overall health of hops in the state. But Lewis said they use 45th Parallel as the distributor for their in-state hops — this includes Cascade, Centennial, Mittelfruh and Fuggle varieties — and that they’ve never had a problem. “I typically order what I need for the coming year in October after the harvest,” Lewis said in an email. “I have never had an

and regular employees, market depreciation saw the funds reduced by about $3.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively. The firefighters’ pension fund started at $18 million and ended with $15 million after income and expenses, and the employees’ fund began with $17.4 million and ended with $14.4 million. “We didn’t have a really good year,” Tomenello said. “You can see that (in) the beginning balances and ending balances. This is the first time they’ve depreciated since I’ve been keeping books. Hopefully, we can look up and things will be getting better, especially with rates coming up.” The township collected about $11 million in taxes over the fiscal year, nearly $7 million going to fire services and $2.6 million going to police services. About $879,000 went to the Harrison Township Public Library and $603,000 went to special assessment districts. No general operating tax was collected.
Appointments and hires
Various township board and job positions were filled by the board of trustees at the April 10 meeting. Carole Wolf, Ramona Romero, Herb Lorentz, Jim Keehn and Sue Keehn were
all reappointed to the Beautification Commission for two-year terms ending April 10, 2025. “All of them have served for a fair number of times,” Township Supervisor Ken Verkest said. “Right now, it’s just for two years, but we’re certainly glad to have them.” Patricia Carrier and Bob Long were reappointed to the Waste Service Hardship Committee for two-year terms. Donald Hibbert and Gina Cozzolino were reappointed as ordinance officers for Lake St. Clair Metropark. They were joined by new appointee Austin Barnett. All have terms lasting until May 21, 2024. The Water and Sewer Department hired a new maintenance worker to fill a vacancy resulting from a retirement. The Water and Sewer Department will also receive a new used vehicle: a 2017 Chevrolet Equinox, transferred over from the Assessing Department. The move is part of a four-vehicle transfer within township departments, with the Equinox move serving as an experiment into how crossovers perform as on-call service vehicles in place of pickup trucks that are less fuel-efficient. Two such trucks, both 2017 GMC 1500s, are being moved from the Water and Sewer Department to the Maintenance Department. Finally, the township is getting rid of a 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, sending it back to Enterprise Fleet Management to sell.

CLINTON TOWNSHIP HOSTING GREEN MACOMB TREE SALE BY DEAN VAGLIA dvaglia@candgnews.com
CLINTON TOWNSHIP — With Earth Day behind us and Arbor Day on the horizon, doing one’s part for the environment is on the conscious person’s mind. If the call to do something for the planet is coming your way, perhaps planting a tree is the place to start. This year, Clinton Township is hosting Green Macomb’s yearly Arbor Day plant and tree sale. The sale will take place April 28-29 at the township’s Civic Center on Romeo Plank Road. “This is an effort by the county, and we’re partnering up with them in the township to see if we can increase the tree canopy and take advantage of the tremendous benefits of having a wider canopy,” Clinton Township Treasurer Paul Gieleghem said. Normally held in Sterling Heights, the sale is a partnership between the county and the Blue Water Conservation District. Macomb County residents buy plants through the conservation district and pick them up at one of two sites, in either Armada or Clinton Township. Gieleghem expects there to be a surplus of plants available with anyone who has not pre-ordered one getting to pick from the remaining stock of paper birches, black cherries, Norway spruces, Douglas firs, red osier dogwoods and whatever other trees and plants are available. Plants are priced from $7 to $25. Trees are sold as bare-root trees with thin, undeveloped

Trees and plants will be available for pickup and purchase at the Clinton Township Civic Center on April 28 and April 29. trunks and roots exposed to the wind. David Lowenstein, consumer horticulture extension educator at the Michigan State University Extension in Macomb County, said plants like these need to get in the ground as soon as possible. A good way of making sure you can plant the tree quickly is by digging a hole before going to the sale, although not just any hole or location will do. Trees need space to safely grow, both by having the air free of hazards, like power lines, and a footprint on the ground roomy enough for the roots.
“You want to dig a hole that’s about two to three times the width of the root bulb,” Lowenstein said. “Those roots are going to spread horizontally in those first couple of years; you want to make sure they have space to grow and that they’re growing in an area where the soil isn’t compacted.” If you must leave your tree out, keep the roots submerged in water and plant before the summer comes. “Don’t plant a tree in the middle of the summer, because the tree is going to be stressed with the hotter temperatures and it is less likely to mature and survive,” Lowenstein said. Watering trees once they are in the ground is essential. Young trees need more water than rain alone can provide, so give the tree a gentle watering at its base every day. Aside from their aesthetics and ability to capture carbon dioxide, Gieleghem says trees provide a suite of benefits to streets and neighborhoods. Trees have been linked to increased property values up to 15% and lower costs of cooling thanks to canopies, and they engender calming behaviors within people around them, slowing neighborhood speeds by 3-15 mph. “We’re viewing this as an opportunity to work with residents to provide a convenient way to help them beautify their yards, and in doing so, they’re going to be able to enjoy the benefits of watching trees grow, but the community benefits in a lot of different ways,” Gieleghem said. For more information about how to plant and grow trees, call the MSU Extension office at (586) 469-5180.

Insect control: A homeowner’s guide to surviving the spring season
METRO DETROIT — The spring season is a safe haven for Michiganders. It’s not only a prequel to the beautiful summer months, but it’s also a season people tend to look forward to as soon as the rainfall and cold fronts of September come around. But as warmer weather approaches, the spring season showcases one problem most homeowners find themselves having to tend to. “With the warm weather last week, people are seeing a lot of wasps and different types of bees around the house, and spiders, pavement ants, the tiny sugar ants and carpenter ants are starting to emerge,” Michael Kharsa, who works for CJB Pest and Mosquito Control in Farmington Hills, said April 18. Kharsa has noticed an influx of calls as the season rolls around. Ants, bees and spiders tend to be the primary culprits during this time, especially with insects trying to find safety from the rainfall. Michael Mangino, owner of What’s Bugging You in St Clair Shores, has noticed this with his recent jobs. “With ants, they’re coming into houses a lot more,” Mangino said. “A lot of it is probably attributed to our high water table, I imagine. They’re going into houses and finding paradise there.” The insects’ ability to make their way into residences is a reminder to have your house sprayed on a consistent basis throughout the year. CJB Pest and Mosquito Control offers a tri-seasonal package for spring, summer and just before the winter months to treat any issues that homeowners might face. Kharsa said CJB focuses on not only eliminating the threat but also on preventing insects from making their way into the house. “When we come out, we’re going to treat around your interior and exterior part of your walls to force the insects from the structure, and we’re going to put a perimeter service around the exterior to prevent the insects from coming in,” Kharsa said. “Basically, we’re providing a barrier and forcing the ones from the walls outside.” Pest control doesn’t stop with treating an insect problem; it can also provide a home inspection, to some extent. While CJB and What’s Bugging You, and many other pest control
companies, offer spraying services, a technician will also walk a residence with a homeowner and discuss areas that might not only be hot spots for insects but also should be treated to prevent future home issues. Mangino said the inspection is a vital part to the service he provides. “Of course, walking with people around their house and pointing out things that could be beneficial, like caulking some areas, pitching the water away from the homes is a big thing, and trimming back foliage away from the house,” Mangino said. “Those are all things that contribute to keeping the longevity of the home, as well as keeping pests away.” For those who are motivated to do it themselves, safety is the primary concern when dealing with pest control products. It’s plausible for minor problems, but consistent issues should be treated by professionals, especially if the homeowner has pets or small children. “The right way to go about it is to read and understand the label 100%,” Mangino said. “The label is the law in our industry, and that’s for good reason because you can get hurt. You can hurt somebody else, and some of these products that people are able to buy online are traditionally for professionals only. There are some great products available that the public can seek out and find, but a lot of them tend to go away in our industry because homeowners misuse them.” As the spring season approaches, active insects should be an important reminder to keep up on pest control treatment throughout the year. The rain and warmth in spring calls for treatment due to the insects becoming active, but an important time frame to keep an eye on is before October. To keep the insects from getting “weathered in,” when they get inside the walls due to the cold temperatures, a service spray before winter is needed. But like most services, the best way to resolve the problem is to keep up with it regularly. “As far as spider treatments and general pest control, that’s more of an exterior spray. If people want it to remain as general pest free as possible, typically spring, summer and fall treatments,” Mangino said. “If they wanted any sort of treatment on the inside, what I would recommend, at the very most, would be early spring with light treatment on the inside with cracks and crevices.”

City Commission votes to continue with Advancing Macomb MOUNT CLEMENS — The Mount Clemens City Commission has voted to maintain its recreation partnership with Advancing Macomb. City commissioners voted unanimously on the matter at the April 17 meeting. Funds in the amount of $19,000 and the use of the city’s recreational facilities were the terms of the deal. The funds came on top of a prior allocation of $5,600 in Community Development Block Grant funds. This will be the second year of Mount Clemens taking part in the “Breaking Barriers to Play” program, an initiative by Advancing Macomb to help lower the cost of community and family-centered recreation. “When (Advancing Macomb) approached us, I think their goal was 35 youth (enrolled),” Mount Clemens Mayor Laura Kropp said. “It says here that 140 youths participated from Mount Clemens specifically, and every time I went to Cairns, that gym was full of kids, so I believe it. I am looking forward to seeing what else they can do with this.” In Mount Clemens, the program has worked with TCB Youth Mentoring to hold activities at the Cairns Community Center. The second year of the partnership will run until April 30, 2024.
Animal ordinance amendments
On April 17, the Mount Clemens City Commission approved several amendments to the city’s animal and foul ordinance, though they have not been made official yet. The changes were made to follow county animal control best practices. Under the amendments, it is unlawful to leave an animal in a car when the temperature is below 32 degrees and above 96 degrees. Furthermore. any animals that are bitten need to be quarantined for 10 days, and the improper tethering of an animal will be an offense. The amendments also remove liability for firefighters, police officers and animal control officers breaking into a car in order to free an animal “under conditions that endanger (its) health or well-being.” “The part that we focused on was dogs in the animals and fowl ordinance and applying those best practices from Macomb County for this,” said Jeffery Wood, public services director for the city of Mount Clemens. “It certainly puts in place some other tools we can utilize, especially when we’re seeing numerous complaints.” No language in the amendments was specifically directed toward fowl and fowl care. The amendments, available to read online as part of the April 17 meeting agenda packet, will be up for a second reading and adoption at the May 1 meeting.

surface and underground disruptions. In doing so, the project became the first in Michigan to employ the technique. “It is very much like traditional slip lining, with the exception of we don’t have to dig a large shaft to push pipe into it and we’re utilizing existing structure such as manholes or bolts to access that sewer,” said Anthony Aderhold, of SAK Construction, the contractors performing the work. “The materials for SPR come on large spools, and it’s a PVC strip. We use an advancing machine that winds it into the pipe.” The advancing machine pulls and snaps the PVC around the existing pipe structure before supports and a structural grout are applied to lock the lining in. The use of only an advancing machine and a pipe spool reduces the surface footprint. The lack of workers going into the pipe allows the sewer to flow as it normally does, and the smooth PVC pipe reduces the friction of the pipe section without significantly changing the diameter.

SPR repairs are not common. Aderhold said SAK only does about two or three repairs of this kind a year. “They are a niche product,” Aderhold said. “It comes into play when an owner is looking at it and goes, ‘Man, we have very little room for equipment or we can’t bypass it.’ From a cost perspective, it’s very comparable to traditional slip lining where you have a deep trench or a large diameter pipe, but the production rate is quite slower on (traditional slip lining).” The rehabilitation project cost about $3 million and is expected to last for 50 years. At press time on April 19, grout was being applied to the pipe. The county expects the project to be completed in May. “We are well on our way to getting this thing complete and hopefully get the traffic cones out of the way,” Miller said. Repairing the pipe is not the last thing the department plans to do in the 21 Mile and Garfield area. A small air scrubber will be built near the intersection to manage the hydrogen sulfate odors from the sewage. Construction of the scrubber is expected to be completed by late 2025.

“I grew up in this area, so Clintondale was pretty familiar to me and it was closer to my house,” Saigh said. “It just worked out really nicely.” After a while, Saigh switched from special to general education, now teaching fifth grade. “It’s been really great because Clintondale is such a small-knit community,” Saigh said. “Everybody knows each other, and everyone is really supportive in the elementary level and the admin level. It is just nice to know all the staff, and we can collaborate together easily just because it is a smaller district.” As much as she’s enjoyed the environment at Clintondale, Saigh’s favorite part of teaching is getting to see students succeed. “I’ve had a lot of my students from last year that are in the middle school come visit or send emails to let me know how they’re doing,” Saigh said. “When I started, I was in the special ed (program), and now I have some of those kids that I started with in fifth grade, and just seeing their progress has been absolutely amazing.” This takes the form of classroom success, as well as extracurricular success through the Girls Club she helped create and runs with another teacher. “We work with the fourth and fifth grade girls to help build self-confidence and show them how to fundraise and stuff like that,” Saigh said. “I have those girls in my class, too, so I can connect between the Girls Club and between schools, like, ‘You guys
are leaders and you need to make sure that you act like leaders.’ It helps them have that self-confidence that is kind of hard to have at that age.” Saigh has even employed some techniques from her fourth grade teacher to help her students feel special. “She would put our names on raffle tickets, and I do that with my kids now, too,” Saigh said. “If they do something really great, I’ll put their name on a raffle ticket, and at the end of the month, I’ll pull names. I’ll pick one or two kids, and they’ll get to have a McDonald’s lunch with me. Just something simple; just something that made me feel like I had a personal connection with the teacher, and I feel like that’s really cool for the kids to have, too.” Being named an Outstanding Teacher by the MISD comes at an outstanding time in Saigh’s life. When she was first given the news — brought to her by principal Cara Cottrell-Booms and other members of the Rainbow Elementary community — Saigh was not able to celebrate for too long. “I started going into labor and went into work, and my principal had everybody gather in the library,” Saigh said. “She told me — very shocking to me — and then I left work and had my baby.” Saigh was one of three Clintondale Community Schools educators to be named an Outstanding Teacher of The Year by the MISD. She was joined by Suzanne Woda from Clintondale Middle School and Yelena Yurkow from Clintondale High School. The MISD honored them and other teachers at a ceremony on April 20, and the Clintondale Board of Education will recognize them on April 24.

tional Youth Leadership Training program. All the while, it was the people around him that kept Shunk in the Scouts, guiding him to the place he is today. “When I was in Scouting, I was always surrounded by positive role models, people who I would like to grow up to be like,” Shunk said. “Those kinds of people kept me going and kept encouraging me.” Back home in Harrison Township, Shunk focused on completing his Eagle Scout project. This took the form of building new tables for the local YMCA. “At the time, their representative came up to me and (said) he was in need of four picnic tables, and he looked to me to implement them,” Shunk said. Shunk made four tables for the YMCA, each one built from wood and featuring metal, laser-engraved game boards built into the table. The games included are tic-tac-toe and a board for checkers and chess. One of the tables is accessible per Americans with Disabilities Act standards. Building the tables was not without its

hiccups, especially when it came to the game boards. “Originally, I wanted to do sticker board games, but those wouldn’t work on the table,” Shunk said. “I had to go to metals and find the right sealant. ... It took me a little while, but we got it done and it looks like the YMCA is making good use of it now.” With the tables made and Eagle Scout rank secured, Shunk plans to spend the next few years still involved with the Scouts. In the long-term, he would like to go to medical school and become a doctor and, perhaps down the line, turn his passion for soccer into a coaching career as well. But whatever path Shunk takes in life, Scouting has left an unmistakable impression on him. “The Scouting journey has definitely turned me into a better person, and hopefully I can continue down that path,” Shunk said.
