03/25/2021 by ADMIN

Two Boy Scouts from Troop 267, located at the West Hempfield Fire & Rescue, will be awarded the rank of Eagle Scout.  We congratulate these young men for their accomplishments and wish them best with their future endeavors.

Alexander (Sasha) Breniser, 18, son of Ronald and Svetlana Breniser of Columbia, will be awarded the rank of Eagle Scout at the Troop 267 Court of Honor banquet held at Camp Mack on Sunday, May 23.

Before joining Troop 267, Sasha was a Cub Scout with Pack 181 at Ironville United Methodist Church where he earned the Arrow of Light, the highest award of Cub Scouting.  Sasha held the leadership positions of patrol leader, Den Chief, and Webmaster with Boy Scout Troop 267. 

For his Eagle Scout project, Sasha repainted a fence at St. Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church in Reading, PA, where he and his family are members. The project included sanding and repainting a fence on the property of the church.

Sasha is a senior at Hempfield High School.  In addition to Scouting, Sasha participates in the Tech Squad, the Stage Crew and the Tabletop Gaming Club, for which he serves as president.  He is part of the National Honor Society, which is devoted to the ideals of scholarship, leadership, service, and character. 

In his free time, he enjoys writing, reading, metalworking, video gaming, and learning about history and tanks.  He is proud that he is half Russian.

Sasha’s future plans include attending college or doing an internship.

Troop 267 has helped over 100 young men, including Sasha, earn the prestigious rank of Eagle Scout.  Congratulations!

 

Nathan Stutzman, 15, son of Brian and Donna Stutzman, of Lancaster, will be awarded the rank of Eagle Scout at the Troop 267 Court of Honor banquet held Camp Mack on Sunday, May 23, 2021.

Before becoming part of Troop 267, Nathan was a member of Cub Scout Pack 67 located at the West Hempfield Fire Hall.  In his time in Troop 267, he has held the leadership positions of patrol leader, librarian, and Assistant Senior Patrol Leader.  His peers elected him to the Order of the Arrow, the national honor society of the Boy Scouts of America.  He is also a member of the National Youth Leadership Training staff.

For his Eagle Scout project, Nathan refurbished two foot bridges at Fairview Park in West Hempfield Township.  The project included replacing most of the wooden boards for both bridges and adding handrails for extra safety.  He plans to stain the wood in the spring.

Nathan is a sophomore at Hempfield High School.  In addition to Scouting, Nathan participates in the track and field team.  He is also part of the concert band.  He is a member of the HHS Anchor Club.

Nathan’s future plans include possibly enlisting in the military or attending college to then pursue a career in law enforcement.
