Fallbrook Eagle Scouts Honored

Family, friends and community residents were invited to a special evening to honor Unit #725, Eagle Scouts Troy Monson, Brian Arnold and Adam Holzer. The Court of Honor ceremony was held on Saturday, March 26, at 6:30 p.m. in the Fallbrook LDS chapel, 621 South Stage Coach Lane. Demonstrating leadership, each of the Eagle Scouts performed a service project to benefit the community of Fallbrook.

18 year old Troy Monson, currently attending BYUI earned his Eagle Scout Award by remodeling the Fallbrook Food Pantry’s kitchen area. A stainless steel tri-sink was installed, copper plumbing was rerouted, a shelving unit was customized and a wall guard was glued to prevent water corrosion. He received donations from members of the Fallbrook 5th ward and help from David Asay and Walt Mattson. His two favorite merit badges are Archery and Life Saving.

15 year old Brian Arnold is a freshman at Fallbrook High School. He planned out how to build five raised planter beds for the Fallbrook Community Garden Area. Brain received a donation from the Fallbrook Angel Society and sold baked goods for the remaining funds. He had several scouts, leaders and parents assist him in building the planters. His favorite merit badges were Auto Mechanics and Whitewater Rafting.

18 year old Adam Holzer attends Palomar College. He contacted Judy Mitchell, District Coordinator of the Mission Resource Conservation District and was directed to build three large raised planter beds to be used by community members to grow their own produce. He received numerous donations from the community and planned and led this service project to earn his Eagle Scout Award. Adam’s favorite merit badges were golf and fingerprinting.
