BSA Scout Pack 92 & Troop 92 taking care of some of our nations 1st veterans.

In Honor of Veterans Day, Pack 92 and Troop 92 joined forces to clean up the Old Methodist Cemetery in downtown Toms River and refresh all the flags on the Veterans graves. The Scouts were grateful to have Toms River Historian, J. Mark Mutter offer his time to walk them through the graves highlighting some of the notable heroes and citizens and the roles they played in our town’s great history. We all learned quite a bit from Mr. Mutter, and we can’t thank him enough for sharing his knowledge with us.

The Flags the scouts placed on the veterans graves were generously donated by George P. Vanderveer American Legion Post 129 through Commander Ed Rutzler. The Scouts wish to dedicate their efforts to all the Legion members in remembrance of their service and sacrifice. We salute all of you and thank you for your service. You are all remembered and appreciated.

The Scouts were also honored by Councilwoman Laurie Huryk, and Mayor Maurice “Mo” B. Hill Jr. with plaques commending them for their service to the community in honor of Veterans Day. We so appreciate them taking the time to do so.

Pack 92 and Troop 92 would like to thank the following individuals for their generous donation of time and support in ensuring this project was successful:

George P. Vanderveer American Legion Post 129 Commander Ed Rutzler, Toms River Historian J. Mark Mutter, Councilwoman Laurie Huryk, Mayor Maurice “Mo” B. Hill Jr., Public Works Director Anthony Benyola, Assistant Director Tim Russell, and the entire Public Works staff for supplying the manpower and equipment used to remove the debris which the Scouts cleared from the graves.
