Holt Cochran - Eagle Scout

Wesleyan Senior, Holt Cochran, was awarded the rank of Eagle Scout on August 13 after completing his final Board of Review. He is a Scout with Troop 21 out of Our Lady of Assumption Church in Brookhaven.  Holt's Eagle Scout Project was to restore an 81-foot footbridge over a creek on a trail in Brookhaven’s Murphey Candler Park.
Holt invested a lot of time and energy into the project which involved installing new decking boards and guardrails and took more than 130 hours to complete over several weekends in the winter and spring. Scouting took Holt on many adventures including a 75-mile backpacking trip to New Mexico, an 80-mile canoe trip in Manitoba, and a week-long sailing trip in the Florida Keys. In Scouting this is called the Triple Crown of Philmont, Northern Tier, and Sea Base respectively.
