The Anderson County Fiscal Court in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky, recognized a local Cub Scout pack for its recent service to the community.
Cub Scout Pack 38 cleaned up an area of a local creek in front of a popular dog park, making the park more attractive and usable for local residents.
Their clean up included debris, trash and dead trees, as well as clearing a natural obstruction that was causing water to overflow the banks whenever it stormed.
The pack’s committee chair says since they finished their work, the creek has stayed clear of debris.

That drive to succeed helped Richardson earn the Bugling merit badge at the 2023 National Scout Jamboree, the 139th badge he’s earned.
