Eagle Scout built ramps
for puppies
Raymond Schmidt is the newest Eagle Scout from Scouts BSA Troop 164.
He earned the rank after completing his Eagle Scout Service Project of building three custom-built
training ramps for puppies at Guiding Eyes for the Blind, which is headquartered in Yorktown Heights.
Its sister organization in Australia heard about the ramps and asked for Schmidt’s plans, which they
used to build their own set of ramps for their puppies.

• Personalize the affair. Much like birthday parties, gradua- sunywcc.edu/peekskill
tion parties are celebrating a particular guest of honor. As a result,
planners should not hesitate to personalize graduation parties so
they re ect the grad who’s being honored. If the guest of honor
just earned his or her law degree, order a cake in the shape of Lady
Justice. Planners tasked with honoring college grads on their way
to medical school can ask guests to don scrubs or white coats. Such
personal touches can add fun to the festivities while still honoring
the new grad.
• Ask grads before devising the guest list. Since the day is all
about the recent graduate, let him or her provide input about the
guest list. Some grads may be uncomfortable serving as the focal
point of a large soirée, while others may prefer family gatherings
or less formal a airs with only friends. e goal of the party is to
celebrate the new graduate, so make sure they’re comfortable with
who is in attendance. If grads choose a friend-heavy guest list, plan
a dinner out with family on another night.
• Invite teachers. Some graduates form strong bonds with teach-
ers who helped them get through di cult coursework or provided
invaluable advice during their academic careers. Make sure these
people, who may include teachers past and present, are invited to
the party, and recognize their role in helping the guest of honor
achieve his or her academic and professional goals.
• Speak with other parents/planners. Graduation season is a
social time of year. Planners and parents can speak with one another
to ensure that parties are not scheduled on the same day. is allows
all graduates to enjoy their moment in the sun and ensures friends
won’t miss the chance to celebrate one another’s accomplishments.
Planners and parents can even coordinate parties together if gradu-
ates express a desire to do so.
