State Representative James Arciero recently attended the Eagle Scout Court of Honor for Geoffrey Thomas of Westford Boy Scout Troop 159.

Geoffrey was recently awarded the rank of Eagle Scout, the highest award in scouting, on June 21st  at a ceremony held at Saint Catherine’s Parish in Westford.  In order to receive this prestigious designation, a scout must secure 21 merit badges in a number of different areas ranging from government to camping.  The final step is the completion of an Eagle Scout project.

Geoffrey’s Eagle project  was the designing, funding, and construction of a two hundred square foot greenhouse at the Norman E. Day Elementary School to add to the Living lab Science Program for grades 1-5 at the school..

As part of the ceremony, Representative Arciero presented a Massachusetts House of Representatives Citation to the recipient to mark the occasion. Representative Arciero is also an Eagle Scout.
