Colorado Scout Earns Eagle With Help From His Friends

Ricky Newell is a 15-year-old boy with a cognitive-developmental disability.

He’s also an Eagle Scout, thanks to his own dedication and hard work, along with a little help from his friends in Troop 5280 in Denver.

Ricky, who has earned more than 40 merit badges, says, “It felt great — it really did.”
