Eagle Scout on March 14, 2022. As a member of Boy Scout Troop 72, John 
has dedicated over 10 years of his life to serving in his local troop 
and making the greater Marion County community a better place to live, 
work, and play.
  To earn the prestigious rank of Eagle Scout, John completed 36 merit 
badges requiring him to demonstrate knowledge of and expertise in 
various life skills, served in troop leadership positions, including 
Patrol Leader and Assistant Senior Patrol Leader, and planned and 
executed an Eagle Scout Service Project. For his project, John built a 
large movable snake habitat display case for Silver Springs State Park, 
now named the ``Snake Shack.'' It included a large base cart for 
storage of supplies and the upper display habitat for the snake with 
large viewing windows, with overall dimensions 6' L X 6' H X 44" W. 
This display case will be used as an educational exhibit at Silver 
Springs. The Snake Shack was constructed with approximately 87 percent 
repurposed material supplied mainly by Silver Springs State Park.
  Congratulations to Mr. Bonner, his family, and his troop on this 
prestigious honor. We look forward to seeing all of his accomplishments 
in the future.
