Sevastopol freshman and Troop 1022 member Ezra Linnan officially joined the rank of Eagle Scout following his board of review earlier this week. Linnan still had some requirements to finish after he completed his Eagle Scout project back in September. Those included two required merit badges, collecting letters of recommendation, and staying active in his unit for at least six months. Linnan completed the requirements while navigating the challenges of the pandemic. During the Board of Review, Linnan says he enjoyed reflecting on his scouting career in front of the committee.

His Eagle Scout project involved building a 100-foot boardwalk through a section of Crossroads at Big Creek with the help of 45 donors and 25 volunteers. Linnan will formally receive his award at a ceremony in the coming months. While he knows his priorities will change as he goes through high school, but he hopes he stays active in scouting as a youth member and a future adult leader.
