Scout project will put the “wall” in wall ball BY GEORGE DEIBEL
Centerville Elementary School students soon will be able to play one of their favorite games during recess without disrupting classes occurring inside the building. As part of his Eagle Scout project, Caleb Keel, of Troop 349 in Mountville, will build a wall ball wall on the school’s playground in one of his final steps toward earning Scouting ’s highest honor. Wall ball is a game where participants throw a ball against a wall, and then another player attempts to catch the ball, Caleb explained. If unsuccessful in snagging the ball, that person must run to the wall and touch it before the next person throws a ball against the wall. Without a wall ball wall, Center ville Elementar y students have been playing the game against a side of the

school building. PTO member Brianne Wagner reached out to Caleb’s dad, Kevin, the leader of Troop 349, to find out if a Scout would be interested in completing an Eagle project at Centerville. Caleb volunteered immediately. He first spoke with Centerville Elementary principal Tom Kramer to propose the idea. See Eagle project pg 3

Putting for Miracles will be held June 7 BY GEORGE DEIBEL
