Renee has been active in scouting and has held the leadership positions of Scribe, Patrol Leader, Troop Guide, Assistant Senior Patrol Leader, and Senior Patrol Leader. She loves scouting, especially all the outdoor activities, learning scout skills, and the safe and fun environment to learn leadership and teamwork. To become an Eagle Scout, participation and being a leader is a requirement.
For her Eagle project, Renee built a portable watershed demonstration table for the Livermore Area Regional Park District, which is a topographical 3D model of Livermore Valley and Del Valle that water can flow through to show the importance of watersheds in our local area. Eagle scout projects are required to learn leadership skills and give back to the community.
