Eagle Scout Organizes Rededication of Cemetery

From WYTV: Eagle Scout Organizes Rededication of Cemetery
Revolutionary War veterans were remembered with a special ceremony on Saturday, all organized by a high school student.

The Northwest Brigade of the American Revolution led the march to the Olde Dutch Mill Cemetery, in Lake Milton, where the Revolution War Veteran Memorial was rededicated.

Eagle Scout David Corll, of Berlin Center, began organizing the event by putting up new fencing, shrubbery and flag poles to honor the military. All the hard work allowed Corll to fulfill his final Eagle Scout requirement.

The cemetery is the oldest in Lake Milton. A Revolutionary War veteran is buried there, as well as, the founding fathers of Milton Township.
