The Eaglets, with team members Robbie Pfeiffer, Maya McGrory, Miele 
McCluskey and Faith McCarthy, 3rd and 4th graders that attend Kennard 
Elementary School in Centreville, competed in and won their youth division 
of the 29th WSB in New Jersey.

The youth spent 3 days of scouting prior to the event.  On Thursday they had 
113 species and 99 species on Friday.  The Big Day on Saturday was even 
better ... 122 species!  They totaled 23 species of warblers before and 
during the event.

Next year will be the 30th WSB and the kids are already planning on how they 
can do better.
Congratulations to a great  bunch of kids.

ps:  Eagle Optics provided the kids 8x32 Eagle Optics Ranger binoculars for 
the event, along with Eagle Optics hats and shirts.  The bins worked really 
well for the kids.
Yes, this is an unabashed plug for Eagle Optics.
