My name is Eddie Seitz and I am a Boy Scout at Troop 682 in Hometown. I am currently working to achieve the highest rank in scouting, Eagle Scout. It has been a long journey, but this is like the finale!

In order to complete my final rank in scouting, I am required to lead a project that benefits my community and demonstrates the leadership skills I have gained throughout scouting. I have decided to raise awareness to homelessness. I have decided to organize a drive benefiting Pilgrim Faith Homeless P.A.D.S (South Suburban Public Action to Deliver Shelter).

I will be holding the drive Sunday February 17th from 12pm to 2pm. As a thank you to those who donate, I will be hosting live music and entertainment. Guest MC DJ Nikki from B96 will be giving prizes every 15 minutes, and new and upcoming Chicago singer songwriter Joshua Staar will perform some of hit singles.

Come out and have a good time while doing something good for all those less fortunate then us.
