He is working toward earning the award, the highest honor a Boy Scout can earn, by completing a number of requirements, including accumulating 21 merit badges and completing 12 additional enrichment projects to teach the scout about community service, personal fitness, family life, camping, and environmental science.

Troop 140 of Les Cheneaux Scoutmaster Dale Streichert passed the idea along to Mr. Sherlund.

His brother, Jeremy, helped him deliver the tables. Two were delivered in May, and three were delivered the last week of July. Aaron and Jeremy are the sons of Kathy and Marty Sherlund of Cedarville.
