Troop 399 Life Scout Completes Eagle Scout Project
North Babylon Scouts Support Food Pantry

On June 8, 2024, North Babylon Troop 399 Life Scout Dalton Asch, completed his Eagle Scout Project at St. Paul’s Church in North Babylon. Dalton’s project was developed to address food insecurity in the community and support the local food pantry. Dalton coordinated and executed the refurbishment of a room in the basement of the church to store dry goods and food for the food pantry. Dalton organized a fundraiser to purchase the material necessary prior to the event. Volunteers, led by Dalton, cleaned out the room, painted, and installed shelving units, creating a like-new space.
