Name: Joe Sheston
Troop: 22
Eagle Project Location: Storybook Children’s Zoo in Dubuque, Iowa
Eagle Project Description: Joe repainted the fire trucks and removed old boards and replaced them. He drained and cleaned the pond. He also cleaned up the rocks around the pond and created a retaining wall with mulch between the pond and the retaining wall. He further moved mulch to other pits and reseeded the hillside at Storybook Children’s Zoo.
What does being an Eagle Scout mean to you? Being an Eagle Scout means accomplishing a goal that I set to achieve as a young Scout, and being able to work hard to achieve that goal.
How did earning the rank prepare you for the future? It has taught me a lot about what I want to do with my life and how to achieve those goals.
What advice would you give to younger Scouts who aspire to become Eagle Scouts? Keep working hard even if the road seems tough.
Please share a favorite Scouting memory. Going to NOAC and placing second in the basketball tournament.
