Celebrating an unforgettable milestone! 🦅

On April 25, 2026, Troop 617 had the honor of recognizing three outstanding young men - Jason, James, and William P - as they each achieved the rank of Eagle Scout. Their dedication, leadership, and commitment to service have truly set them apart, and this accomplishment represents years of hard work and perseverance.

From countless campouts and service projects to leading others with integrity, they have each left a lasting impact on their troop and community. We are incredibly proud of all they’ve achieved and excited to see the paths they’ll forge ahead.

For his Eagle Scout project, William P built a tote storage rack for the robotics class at the Autauga County Technology Center. The rack provides an organized and durable way to store equipment and materials used in the robotics program. Through planning, leadership, and hard work, William created something that will help keep the classroom organized and support students in their hands-on learning for years to come.

Great job, William!

For his Eagle Scout project, James created a beautiful mural showcasing the history of the Willis Bradford Branch YMCA. He carefully sketched each image by hand before bringing the entire wall to life with paint, capturing important moments and memories from the YMCA’s story. His hard work, talent, and dedication turned a blank wall into a meaningful piece of art the community can enjoy for years to come.

Congratulations on a job well done, James!
