Eagle Scout Project Enhances Cemetery Entrance On Saturday afternoon, Jaxon Luthye (front left), as part of his Eagle Scout project, led his group of volunteers in preparing the ground for the cemetery's entry sign garden. They also touched up the paint on the Elmwood Cemetery sign. His hard work and leadership were a tremendous help to the Parks and Recreation staff and the entire Choctaw Community! Thank you, Jaxon, for your dedication and effort in making a lasting impact! (The entry sign garden is part of the Gateway Gardens Project, funded by the Oklahoma City Community Foundation)
