Boy Scout Troop 303 in Orinda, chartered by the Rotary Club of Orinda, recently inducted four new Eagle Scouts: Christopher Ryan Andrada, Cole Wolfe, Jorge Alejandro Gutierrez, III, and Thor Alexander McAvenia, all Miramonte High School students. For their Eagle Scout projects, Andrada refurbished a 7-foot weathered cedar Peace Pole, which displays the message "May Peace Prevail on Earth" in six languages, and installed a 10 by 12 foot flagstone patio around it at Santa Maria Church in Orinda; Wolfe designed a variety of wood rabbit chew toys and led his fellow Troop members in the fabrication of 100 toys and an instructional flier on rabbit care to benefit newly adopted rabbits from the Martinez Animal Shelter; Gutierrez refurbished the Orinda Baseball Association's Snack Shack, installing new shelving, new countertops, and building new doors for the shack; and McAvenia coordinated and led a Safety Fair, offering basic first aid, CPR and emergency preparedness training through the American Red Cross, and a first aid kit donation benefitting SHELTER Inc. of Contra Costa County. Under his direction, Troop 303 collected over 1,200 first aid items, which were assembled into over 60 complete family first aid kits.
