Pryputniewicz is grateful for his Eagle Scout honor

Caden Pryputniewicz of Farragut recently earned the rank of Eagle Scout, Boy Scouts of America’s highest achievement.

He was recognized by Troop 59, at his Court of Honor held at St. Elizabeth’s Episcopal Church, as he was awarded the Eagle Scout Badge and Medal.

Combining his love for playing baseball and for what the American Flag represents, Pryputniewicz’s Eagle Scout project consisted of planning and leading in the installation of two 20-foot American flag poles at the Farragut Baseball, Inc. ballfields across from The Cove at Concord Park. The flagpoles are located at Field 1 and between Fields 2 and 3.

Pryputniewicz thanked his leaders, fellow Scouts of Troop 59 and others (including companies) who helped him achieve this honor: Steve Branson of Farragut Baseball Recreation League, Allen Signs of Knoxville, Home Depot of Lenoir City and Lowes of Knoxville.
