Kings Park Boy Scout Earns Eagle Scout Rank

Congratulations to James Brauer!

From Suffolk County Legislator: Suffolk County Legislator Rob Trotta congratulated James Brauer of Boy Scout Troop 75 of Kings Park for achieving the rank of Eagle Scout. His Community Service Project involved refurbishing the Matthew Russo Memorial Garden at the Fort Salonga Elementary School. This entailed replacing an old bench with three new ones, adding new plantings and creating rock paths to the garden, as well as installing a fence.

“This is a proud moment for Jimmy, his parents and family, as well as his troop leaders and fellow scouts. I extend my congratulations to him for his diligence and perseverance in becoming an Eagle Scout and hope that he will inspire the youth of our great County of Suffolk,” said Suffolk County Legislator Rob Trotta.
