Eagle Scout Joshua Plum Honored in Hanover Tp

Joshua Plum honored by Chairman John Diacogiannis
Becoming an Eagle Scout is no easy feat. The successful applicant must earn 22 merit badges and complete an extensive service project Joshua Alan Plum, now 18 and a recent Liberty High School grad, started working on his Eagle in the 5th grade.

Plum officially received his Eagle award earlier this month during an Eagle Proclamation Ceremony conducted by Troop 302 at Bethlehem's First Presbyterian Church. He was also honored by Hanover Township's Board of Supervisors at their October 13 meeting for his "dedication and devotion in preserving the finest virtues of American life."

They also declared Friday, October 16, 2015, as Joshua Plum Day.

"He came a long way," said his proud father, Jeff Plum.

Joshua's next challenge is the United States Marines. He starts boot camp on December 7, Pearl Harbor Day.
