Spilyay Tymoo, Warm Springs, Oregon October 16, 2013 Page 7 Eagle Scout project benefits CPS T ru m an G abriel, a 15- y ear-o ld m em b er o f Boy S co u t T ro o p 728 o u t o f Beaverton, has completed a service project for Children’s Protective Services o f Warm Springs. T he service project was part o f Truman’s quest to be com e an Eagle Scout, the h ig h e st ra n k in th e Boy Scouts o f America. To achieve this aw ard, Truman had to plan and com plete a service project for a non-profit organization. The purpose o f this service project was to showcase his abilities, as a leader and also benefit the chosen organization. Truman, a sophomore at Westview High School, pro vided 50-plus care packages and assorted items for chil dren entering foster care. H e gathered the contents o f th e care packages, as sembled the packages, and delivered them to Children’s Protective Services in Warm Springs last month. Trum an recruited family members, neighbors, friends, and fellow troop members to help distribute fliers, collect donated goods, and assemble CPS for his project.” Hager added, “T rum an’s enthusiasm and desire to help others is evident by his posi tive attitude, and,his commit m ent and follow through. He delivered on his promise to com plete this p ro ject in a timely manner with the help o f his family and friends.” I Tribal Council last week approved the construction o f a new building to house Warm Springs Protective Services. The new build ing will be located near the clinic. CPS and H ealth and H u m an S ervices have been planning this project for some time. For the past several years the depart m en t has been p u ttin g money aside with the goal o f d ev eloping th e new home. Thenew building will be o n 2.5 acres, allow ing room for expansion some day in the future. Randy Scott, Land Ser vices administrator, made the presentation at Coun cil last week. T he project has been advertised to the commu nity, and the zoning is ap propriate for the CPS use, Scott said.
