New Eagle Scout - James Clement

Eagle Scout James Clement with Father Bateman
On Sunday, August 15, James Clement, a member of our parish, became the newest Eagle Scout from our parish.  A few weeks before Andrew Hartung held his court of honor before leaving the area with his family.  James held his court of honor at Evangelical Lutheran Church in Waynesboro, who sponsoring organization for his troop.  As his Eagle Scout Project he assisted in the renovation of the troop's cabin up in the woods.  

James pins the "mother's pin" on his mom, Judy, as dad, Dave,  watches proudly.
The Rank of Eagle is a major achievement for any young man and the requirements are difficult.  In addition to the completion of his scout project, he must demonstrate that he lives the principles of the Scout Oath and Law in his daily life - receiving recommendations from people who know him; also he must exercise leadership positions in the troop and achieve certain criteria with merit badges and activities.

Congratulations, James!
