Boy Scout Troop 265, chartered 50 years ago by Lamb of God Lutheran Church in Flower Mound, celebrated last month six more scouts who have achieved the rank of Eagle.
Kyler Kidwell, Zach Xenios, Sidd Ganti, Nick McClarnon, Paul Rochelle and Spencer Green — all Flower Mound or Highland Village residents — join more than 120 other Troop 265 scouts who have achieved the highly respected rank. Their combined Court of Honor ceremony was held March 12 at the church. Collectively, they have completed 494 camping nights, 170 merit badges and 320 service hours in their troop and the local community, according to a news release from their troop.
