The article highlighting Stephen Donahue’s volunteer work as a local scout leader recognizes a true local hero. Boys and girls joining scouting thrive in the atmosphere of such role models! His own leadership, coupled with that of various parents who also volunteer their time, make a scout program that is vibrant and worthwhile.

Scouting challenges young boys and girls to reach higher. They gain invaluable leadership experiences at a young age while doing so. Whether in cub scouts (coed), ages 5-10, or coed scouting, ages 11-18, young people are challenged, experience unique adventures, learn citizenship and ultimately a number will earn the Eagle Scout rank. Stephen Donahue is someone who makes it happen. Congratulations to Stephen on his tenure as a unit leader for a scout troop! Well done!
