Patrick Gordon Stanton is the newest Eagle Scout to receive both the Certificate and Medal from KWVA Chapter 14. On Saturday, the 7th of Feb. Clarence Dadswell, Tina Crisp, Gene Stone and Harold Macking were in attendance at the Pinellas Park First Baptist Church to represent Chapter 14. Al DeStefano represented our friends in VFW 4364.There was a large crowd present as Patrick was indeed an outstanding scout. His project (Required in the criteria to attain the rank) was to rebuild the restrooms in the church hall. This was a major job in itself but falling plaster, leaking pipes and Murphy's Law together became a problem. Patrick kept at it and the finished product would be admirable for even a professional. Mayor Mischler of Pinellas Park spoke highly of Patrick as he had known him since Patrick was in grade school. You could feel the emotion of the proud parents in the aisles. One family member came down from Virginia Beach.
