While most teenagers are preoccupied with school and sports, 17-year-old Cameron Drake spent three years raising funds and building a playground for his church to become an Eagle Scout. His plan to finance and construct the playground began four years ago as Drake formulated his required service project for a nonprofit group to attain Eagle Scout status. To achieve the highest rank organization, the scout must plan, finance and supervise a project “worthy of an Eagle Scout,” Troop 15 Scoutmaster Lovie Smith said.
