Norwich boy obtains rank of Eagle Scout
NORWICH – Ninth grade Norwich High School Student Joshua Mahannah recently completed all of the requirements necessary to obtain Boy Scouts of America’s most prestigious rank.
To obtain the rank of Eagle Scout, Mahannah fulfilled advancements from Boy Scout to Life Scout and completed 11 required merit badges, and several others. As his Eagle Scout Service Project, Mahannah chose to revitalize the Auburn Park, which included planning and managing it to a successful completion and raising the necessary funds. Mahannah was able to manage his project, saving money left over to have a picnic for the neighbors of the Auburn Park community.
At the age of 6, Mahannah joined Pack 62 as a Tiger Cub and continued in the Cub Scouting Program to complete his Arrow of Light. Camping, church, family, school, music and community became a huge part of his life and continue to be.
On May 17, Mahannah, his family, friends and community celebrated his Court of Honor, where he received his Eagle Scout Awards at St. Bartholomew’s Parish Center.
Congressman Michael Arcuri’s office made arrangements to send Mahannah the American Flag that flew over Congress in Washington D.C. on the day of his Eagle Court of Honor. He received the flag and a certificate as a symbol and reminder of obtaining such a prestigious honor.
Mahannah plans on staying active in the scouting program and will be working at Camp Tuscarora this summer. The ninth-grader’s family is proud of his accomplishments. “Josh had worked very hard for the past 9 years, and he has had a lot of fun all the way through the program. He deserves this honor, and we know everything he has learned and experienced will stay with him and help make him strong in character, responsibility and a great leader someday,” said Mahanna’s grandparents Rick and Betsy.
