Linus Brannam Completed his Eagle Project on Saturday - Linus’ project took place at the Messiah United Methodist Church where he and all his volunteers built and installed 3 benches for the Messiah Memorial Garden. They also landscaped and mulched the plant bed on the north side of the church and cleared debris along the parking lot. Here is a message from Linus; I wanted to let everyone know that my Eagle project was completed today. I am very grateful for the help from all the scouts. I had scouts from 5 different Troops! Especially grateful for Jack Wells, Collin Wyman, Andrew Gandy, Mr. Rothandler and Mr. Wells
