Pelpel, Svedberg and Morley Photo provided

Three Boy Scouts from Troop 219 were recently honored at and Eagle Court of Honor ceremony held at the Lafayette United Methodist Church in Lafayette on January 2nd and led by former Scoutmaster, Stig Svedberg. After many years of diligent work, Matthieu Pelpel, Erik Svedberg and Calvin Morley have attained the Eagle Scout rank which is the highest available rank in the Boy Scouts of America. They will maintain the title of Eagle Scout for life.
For his Eagle Project, Matthieu Pelpel refurbished a set of bleachers for the Acalanes High School swimming pool. The project was funded by the Lafayette Chamber of Commerce. Matthieu is a senior at Acalanes High School.
Erik Svedberg's Eagle Project entailed constructing and installing numerous directional sign posts around the Lafayette Community Fields to help guide visitors along its many winding and hidden trails. Erik is a senior at Campolindo High School.
Calvin Morley's Eagle Project involved building benches for a low income housing community in Pleasant Hill. Calvin worked with Contra Costa Interfaith Housing. This group, who owns the apartments, asked for benches for the courtyard where the children like to play. Calvin graduated from Bentley School in Lafayette in 2010.
