Milton High graduate earns Eagle Scout honor

Hank Hard, a member of Troop 427, had his Eagle ceremony on June 7th. 

Hank’s involvement in scouting began in 2003, when he joined Cub Scouts in the first grade. His highlight of Cub Scouts was winning the Pinewood Derby. After years of camping trips, weeklong winter and summer camps, earning merit badges  and working with his troop on community  projects, Hank earned the rank of Eagle Scout this year.

As  Hank’s Eagle project, he built a picnic table, benches and a fire ring at the Yellow River State Park on behalf of the Northwest Florida Trail Association. 

Hank graduated from Milton High School this year.  He was a four-year member of the Mighty Black and Gold Band.
