Boy Scout Troop 4
Boys Scout Troop 4’s Trey Turner, Matthew Perley and Rob White all have achieved the rank of Eagle Scout.
Three Troop 4 Boy Scouts were recently recognized for achieving the rank of Eagle Scout at the Court of Honor on Sunday, May 4 at Vestavia Hills United Methodist Church. The three scouts to receive scouting’s highest honor at this ceremony will be Matthew David Perley, the son of David and Sharon Perley, Gordon (Trey) Gerald Turner, III, the son of Bo and Jamie Turner and Robin (Rob) McClain White, the son of Brunson and Dell White. All are members of Troop 4’s “Dragon” patrol and are pleased to call Vestavia Hills their home.
At minimum, the rank of Eagle Scout requires 21 different merit badges. Some are required and others can be chosen by the individual scouts based on their individual interests. To reach the rank of Eagle Scout, these young men also must complete a significant community service project. For his project, Perley built tables to be used at Vestavia Hills United Methodist Church. Turner built a Gaga Pit, which will be used as a dodge ball court at the Vestavia Hills YMCA. White constructed a storage building at Lakeshore Foundation to serve the Foundation’s Lima Foxtrot program for injured veterans.
