MRB: What was your Eagle Scout project about?

AW: My Eagle Scout project was about building feral cat house for cats living in the wild. With help from Troop B, we built 15 cat houses from coolers. We made them to donate to the Bucks County SPCA.

MRB: How long did the Eagle Scout project take you to complete, and is there a special ceremony?

AW: Planning took several months but I was able to complete the making of the coolers in one day. There is a ceremony called an Eagle Court of Honor. I have not had mine yet.

MRB: What is your favorite part of playing on the CB West football team?

AW: My favorite part is when I walk on the turf for practice every week. I have to be ready at all times and focus every day. I like working out and hanging out with the guys on the team. 

MRB: What is the best part of being manager for the boys’ basketball team?

AW: When I was a basketball manager, I had so much fun with the boys and running the scoreboard and shooting some baskets.

MRB: What is the best part of being a CB West student?

AW: I love it that I am a senior this year. I like going to football games and participating in all of the activities that are available.
