City Council Regular Meeting: June 2, 2009
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Each year, a group of Boy Scouts in Rosemount master the skills and complete the service projects that
qualify them as Eagle Scouts. The designation is the highest advancement rank for Boy Scouts, reflecting
the completion of requirements in the areas of leadership, service, and outdoor skills. Nationally, only five
percent of Boy Scouts achieve this goal.
The City Council tonight continues its tradition of honoring these accomplishments by commending a
Scout from Rosemount who recently achieved the Eagle rank.
Martin David Spadafore refurbished bleachers at the Dakota County Fairgrounds. He worked to
restore the structures to the appropriate building codes for the safety of children who might be
tempted to run beneath them. The project included replacing boards and painting. He is a junior
at Rosemount High School and hopes to study engineering in college
The Council commends this Scout for his work, and it thanks the adults who work with these young
people, including Scoutmaster Ken DuBois.
