Smithtown, NY - January 30, 2018 - Suffolk County Legislator Robert Trotta recently congratulated Joshua Witt of Boy Scout Troop 125 for achieving the esteemed rank of Eagle Scout. He is also the fourth scout on his street to become an Eagle Scout.

This rank is a recognition that will stay with you for the rest of your life,” said Suffolk County Legislator Rob Trotta, who represents the district. “What you have done is very impressive and people will expect more from you,” added Legislator Trotta.
