Chris LaMarche passed his Eagle Board of Review at the Great Lakes Centennial Jamboree. Chris had the most ambitious Eagle Scout project in my memory. He is a diver and his project was to replace the bouys on a wreck in Lake Michigan. He coordinated with the Coast Guard to bring in the cutter Mackinaw to actually install the new bouy and the 1 ton sinker he fabricated. He also had to do extensive work with the Department of Environmental Quality and Corps of Engineers for permits. Chris is shown with Jim Simmons, formerly a Scouter in Sault Ste Marie.

Didn't know exactly what Chris' project was. I'm impressed.
It's also great to see "Sailor Bear" Simmons again. I was thinking about him the other day, wondering how he has been. It looks like he's doing great, and still helping Scouts!
