exemplified the finest qualities of citizenship and leadership by 
taking an active part in the Boy Scouts of America, Troop 1028, and

   Caleb has been very active with his troop, participating in many 
scout activities. Over the many years Caleb has been involved with 
scouting, he has not only earned numerous merit badges, but also the 
respect of his family, peers, and community. Most notably, Caleb has 
earned the rank of Brave in the Tribe of Mic-O-Say. Caleb has also 
contributed to his community through his Eagle Scout project. Caleb led 
a group of scouts to the Platte City Cemetery to use GPS tracking and 
photographs to document nearly 1,000 gravestones in the cemetery and 
preserve the historical information online.
