The Path Towards Eagle Scout: Henry Brown's Community Project of a Disc Golf Park in Balsam Township

KAXE | By Heidi Holtan

hard work and leadership skills learned through the boy scouts program

Henry Brown is a 17 year old who is on his way to earning his Eagle Scout with the creation of a disc golf park in Balsam Township. It wasn't just the idea that was his: he went to the township board, found businesses to support it, built it and is now getting the word out through the media and disc golf websites.

A guy who supports his community, is getting people outside under the towering pines. Well, it's kinda the respite we all needed in this busy, contentious election season.

Thanks Henry Brown.
