Troop 24 Eagle Scout Needs Your Help
Eagle Scout Elijah Ourth embodies the true spirit of Scouting in all that he does. He started as a Pack 24 Cub Scout camping at the Scout Cabin and ultimately joined his fellow Troop 24 Boy Scout friends on epic high adventure outings to explore the great outdoors. But Elijah wanted more, he spent his senior year of high school as an exchange student in Sweden and became a member of the Swedish Scouting program. Elijah did a solo kayak trek down the length of the Kankakee River as a high school student. Now Elijah looks to tackle a 300 km dog sled trip at the Arctic Circle through Sweden and Norway, but he needs the help of his Troop 24 family. To enter the race, Elijah needs to win a contest by gathering as many votes as he can. Please go to http://polar.fjallraven.com/contestant/?id=213 to vote for Elijah. Watch his video and you will see a few photographs of his Troop 24 High Adventure trips. If you can share or post something on your own Facebook page or e-mail the link to your friends, that would be great too!
