Leg. Horsley Honors New Eagle Scouts

Galen Merigliano and Ethan Penny were honored by local legislator for earning prestigious award.

Two Boy Scouts were recently honored by Legislator Wayne Horsley for achieving the Eagle Scout Award – the highest honor a scout can receive.

The legislator recently honored Galen Merigliano of Babylon Village and Ethan Penny of Lindenhurst for reaching the rank of Eagle Scout. Merigliano mapped, marked and blazer a six-mile loop for walking, running and biking to promote outdoor fitness for his Eagle project while Penny rehabilitated a Veterans Memorial that had fallen into disrepair.

Leg. Horsley presented both new Eagle Scouts with proclamations to acknowledge the occasion.
