At the September 22nd meeting, the Township Committee recognized Sahil Ravula, a Junior at Hillsborough High School and a member of Boy Scout Troop 89, has recently earned the rank of Eagle Scout.
“The Township Committee congratulates Sahil Ravula for having achieved the rank of Eagle Scout,” said Mayor Doug Tomson.
Sahil’s Eagle Scout project consisted of building four food donation boxes for libraries in Hillsborough, Somerville, North Plainfield and Peapack & Gladstone. Over 16 children and adults from Troop 89 helped with the construction which took over 100 hours to complete. Sahil also served as Librarian, Patrol Leader, Outdoor Ethics Guide and Troop Guide.
Sahil is an active member of the Hillsborough High School Volleyball Team and was selected for the Johnson & Johnson Technology Awareness Program. He also initiated a Youth Leadership and Public Speaking Program at the Sri Venkateswara Temple and Community Center and has taught over 100 students.
