Eagle Scout

On Jan. 11, at Atlantic United Methodist Church in Ocean City, Boy Scout Troop 261 held an Eagle Court of Honor for William Strang of Ocean Pines.  
Strang, who is attending Towson University studying electronic media/film, has been a member of Troop 261 for seven years; he has attended two national jamborees and was a regular attendee of various camping trips.  
His eagle project consisted of relocating the library at Atlantic United Methodist Church.
There were approximately 50 people in attendance including scout executive Jason Pierce. Sen. Jim Mathias, Del. Jim McDermott, Commissioner Bud Church and Bill Reddish, community liaison to Rep. Andy Harris, delivered proclamations honoring Eagle Scout Strang.
