Jackson DeWine earns Eagle rank

Jackson DeWine, a member of Boy Scout Troop 63, has earned the rank of Eagle Scout. He will be recognized at an Eagle Court of Honor at Canterbury United Methodist, the host church of Troop 63. The troop is led by Bubba Wells.

For his Eagle project, Jackson built bookshelves for the teacher supply room at PreSchool Partners and held a supply drive in Crestline to fill those shelves. 

Jackson served as senior patrol leader of Troop 63 last year and was elected to the Order of the Arrow, the honor society of scouting. He earned 21 merit badges on his path to Eagle and logged 51 nights of camping.  

 He is the son of Thomas and Lane DeWine, brother of Harper DeWine and grandson of Bob and Anne Jackson of Anniston and the late Tom and Nancy DeWine.  He is the second Eagle Scout in the family, joining his cousin Steven Riddick of Huntsville. Jackson is a junior at Mountain Brook High School, where he is a member of the track team and the Interact Club.
