Four Scouts from Troop 206 achieve Eagle Scout rank

Troop 206 of the Pacific Skyline Council (Scouting America) celebrated four new Eagle Scouts during an Eagle Court of Honor on June 27, 2026 — pictured from left to right are Stephen Cheung, Josh Cohen, Kai Kawaguchi and Arron Mahoney. They were recognized for their exceptional leadership, perseverance, and community service in a traditional ceremony guided by Scoutmaster John Grundy (pictured far right).

Eagle Scout is the highest rank attainable in Scouting and is earned by only a small percentage of youth who participate in the program. To achieve it, each Scout must complete rigorous requirements, including earning at least 21 merit badges, demonstrating leadership within the troop, living the Scout Oath and Law, and planning and executing a substantial Eagle Service Project that benefits the community.

The June 27th ceremony was led by Scoutmaster John Grundy, whose steady guidance and deep commitment to youth development have shaped Troop 206 for many years. Grundy opened the proceedings by explaining the significance of the Eagle rank and the many mentors who help Scouts reach this milestone — from fellow Scouts and Assistant Scoutmasters to parents and the chartering organization, Trinity Episcopal Church.

“It has been a true privilege to watch these young men grow from energetic boys into thoughtful, capable leaders,” said Grundy. “Their journey reflects the very best of Scouting — hard work, integrity, and a genuine desire to serve others. I am confident that the character they have built will serve them well in every future endeavor.”

Added Kristin Gray, Committee Chair of Troop 206: “These four young men have shown remarkable dedication and character throughout their Scouting journey. Their Eagle Service Projects have made a real difference in our community, and they serve as outstanding role models. We are incredibly proud of Stephen, Arron, Josh, and Kai and grateful to all the families, adult leaders, and volunteers who supported them.”
