RESOLUTION EXPRESSING RECOGNITION OF JOSIAH FILSON'S EAGLE
SCOUT PROJECT AT EVERGREEN PARK
WHEREAS, Josiah Filson is a member of Boy Scout Troop #542; and
WHEREAS, Josiah has achieved the Eagle Scout rank which is the highest rank
within the Boy Scout organization; and
WHEREAS, there are several requirements which must be met in order to achieve
the rank of Eagle Scout and this generally takes a minimum of three years; and
WHEREAS, one of the requirements of the Eagle Scout rank is to plan and
complete a project which is beneficial to the school, church or community; and
WHEREAS, Josiah chose to plan and plant a flower garden at Evergreen Park as
his Eagle Scout project and in doing so organized a garage sale as a fundraiser, solicited
donations of money, plants, and materials and also contacted potential volunteers; and
WHEREAS, Josiah's hard work and dedication to this project, which is not only
beneficial to the City as owners of Centerbrook Golf Course but also to the community as a
whole, deserves the appreciation and thanks of the City Council of the City of Brooklyn Center
and the citizens of the City.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
Brooklyn Center that the flower garden area planned and planted by Josiah Filson as his Eagle
Scout project is greatly appreciated and the beauty it provides will be enjoyed by all who visit
Evergreen Park.
