Smithtown, NY - April 7, 2016 - Suffolk County Legislator Robert Trotta praised John Davignon of Kings Park for achieving the esteemed rank of Eagle Scout. John has been active in scouting since becoming a Tiger Cub in 2004 and then joining Troop 75 in 2009 and advancing with various ranks to that of Eagle Scout. John has held numerous leadership posts during his scouting years.
