Good Deed for Scouts

Clayton Meyers (from left) and Micah Lindberg are part of a group of 16 Cedarville and Hessel scouts who helped clean up Cedar Cemetery in Cedarville last week. Boy Scout Troop 140 of Les Cheneaux participated in the cleanup as a community service project. Others working Tuesday, April 25, include Thomas Beukema, Peter and Patrick Duman, Brent Heerspink, Matt Hill, Jordan Huff, Daniel and Nathanial Landreville, Charlie McConkey, Matt Nelson, Aaron and Jeremy Sherlund, Taylor Smith, and Jacob Strait. The scouts are led by Dale Streichert, who expects at least two of the scouts to return to the cemetery to work on repairing its split rail fence as an Eagle Scout project. Under the sponsorship of the Les Cheneaux Lions Club, Troop 140 has produced 24 Eagle Scouts so far, Mr. Striechert said.

Thomas Beukema and Jordan Huff, members of Les Cheneaux Boy Scouts Troop 140, pile up leaf litter and pine needles while raking the lawn at Cedar Cemetery on Four-Mile Block Road in Cedarville. The cemetery is owned and maintained by Clark Township.
