Eagle Scout Spruces Up Firehouse Entrance

Michael Competiello receives proclamation at council meeting.

The Newfoundland Fire Company building’s appearance was upgraded thanks to the work of Michael Competiello, Jefferson Township’s newest Eagle Scout.

Competiello, a member of Troop 151, chose to build a garden with pavers on the front steps and around the flagpole of the firehouse.

“We had a lot of my scout meetings there from the time I was a kid,” Competiello said. “I wanted to give back to the firehouse, since I have so many memories of it.”
