Calhoun, who is a member of Boy Scout Troop 136 at All Saints Episcopal Church, built a concrete sidewalk and slab to fix up a backyard storage area at the Children’s Home Society of Florida on San Diego Road. Also part of the project was staining and sealing a wooden fence on the property.

Assisting Calhoun with the project was Andrew Melville, who donated time and supplies to help make Calhoun’s project a success. Melville owns PDSI Concrete and Pavers in Jacksonville.

After finishing his project, Calhoun is continuing to work toward Eagle status with only two more merit badges to earn and expects to be granted his Eagle designation in the spring.

Prior to Stanton, Calhoun attended Julia Landon College Preparatory School. He is the son of Debbie and Deryle Calhoun.
