Eagle Scout upgrades First Tee Golf program

Posted

Jacob Cutler, of Bellmore, recently completed his Eagle Scout Project for Boy Scout Troop 192 at Eisenhower Park.

For his project, Cutler performed repairs and renovations at the First Tee of Nassau County, located in Parking Field 8. He repainted the building and made signs that list the nine core values, nine healthy habits and nine fundamentals of golf, all of which are part of the First Tee program.

At his Eagle Scout Court of Honor in the Bellmore Presbyterian Church, Presiding Officer Norma Gonsalves of the Nassau County Legislature presented Cutler with a citation for his hard work.

“Jacob has shown tremendous dedication and organizational skills,” said Gonsalves. “His improvements at the First Tee will help the program continue to instill positive virtues and essential values to the youth of Nassau County.”
