Justin had his Eagle Board of review on Thursday night and he was informed that he successfully completed his review. Justin is the son of Mark and Marianne Hall of Berlin. Justin is currently a Sophomore attending Berlin High School.

Justin joined Boy Scout troop 222 on June 9, 2009 and since then he has earned 40 Merit Badges and the rank of Eagle Scout so far in his career. Justin will soon be awarded his Eagle Scout patch and three Eagle Palms that represent Justin earning an additional 15 Merit Badges above what is required for the Eagle rank. Justin’s Eagle Project was to build and locate benches along trails at Dyken Pond Nature Center. Justin has also earned over 125 hours of Community Service from the Veterans Scouts association.
