Smithtown,
NY)…Suffolk County Legislator Robert Trotta recently congratulated Joshua Witt
of Boy Scout Troop 125 for achieving the esteemed rank of Eagle Scout. He is also the fourth scout on his street to
become an Eagle Scout.
For his Eagle
Scout Project, Josh designed and constructed four picnic tables with benches
for the Smithtown Historical Society. Through various fundraisers he was able
to purchase all of the supplies he needed for his project.
“The fact that
you became an Eagle Scout before you turned 18 is indicative of your character,
your ability to be a leader and to work with other people. This rank is a recognition that will stay
with you for the rest of your life,” said Suffolk County Legislator Rob Trotta,
who represents the district. “What you have done is very impressive and people
will expect more from you,” added Legislator Trotta.
