Pastor Keith Moore thanked the scouts for living the 12th point of the scout law — A scout is reverent. He also thanked scouts for supporting Beech Grove and Glebe Episcopal Church with their many service projects.

In addition, scout leaders Brian Champigny and Paul Long were presented awards by Pastor Moore for their many years of dedicated service to scouting and units at Beech Grove.

Beech Grove then presented wooden honor roll boards to Troop 16 Scoutmaster Tony Stewart, recognizing the troop’s Eagle Scouts; to Sea Scout Leader Mike Kiser, recognizing Ship 16’s Quartermasters; and to the Girl Scouts, recognizing Gold Award recipients.
