| Darill Louis Niedermeyer |

|
| March 10, 2008 |
Darill Louis Niedermeyer became a Troop 123 Eagle Scout on March 10, 2008.
Darill
earned 21 merit badges on his path to becoming an Eagle Scout. His favorite merit badges were rifle shooting and camping.
Darill's favorite Scouting
events were attending summer camp at Camp Parsons, and serving as a Counselor in Training for two years. He
also enjoyed all of the 50 mile hikes.
At age 16, Darill joined Venturing Crew 123 while maintaining his Scout
membership in Troop 123. Darill served Troop 123 as its Senior Patrol Leader, and as the Patrol Leader of the Combat
Wombats Patrol. While Darill was Patrol Leader, the Combat Wombats won the Aurora District Camporee competition.
Darill is is currently a Junior at Nathan Hale High School where he has participated in football for two years, along
with soccer and wrestling. He maintains a 3.5 grade point average while taking Advanced Placement History and Language
Arts.
Darill went to Costa Rica with his Spanish Club this past Spring Break. This was a challenge
for Darill because he had taken three years of French, not Spanish. However, it was one of the best non-scouting
experiences of Darill's life.
Since math comes easy to Darill, he is considering accounting and business.
Darill is looking at colleges for fall 2009. (Last updated May 27, 2008)

Nick Davis
Became a Troop 123 Eagle Scout in March 2004.
Nick began
his Scouting career in 1994 as a Tiger Cub in Pack 321. During his Cub Scouting, Nick worked with Cubmaster Dennis Lewarch,
and his Assistant, Dean MacDonald.
After earning his Arrow of Light award in 1999, Nick crossed over into
Troop 123, under Scoutmaster Steve Brockman. In his first years with Troop 123, Nick participated in hikes, summer
camps, white-water rafting and canoe voyages. While earning his ranks, Nick also earned unique merit badges including
Aviation and Small Boat Sailing.
In 2000, Nick began serving as Den Chief for a Den in Pack 321. Nick worked with
the same Den through their Arrow of Light year, and some Scouts in the Den crossed over to join Troop 123.
In 2004, while serving as SPL for Troop 123, Nick completed his
Eagle Scout award. His Eagle Project was done at Carkeek Park, installing plants and trails near the park's ecological center.
The Scouts in Troop 123 who Nick had coached as Den Chief performed the flag ceremony for his Eagle Court of Honor, just after
Nick's 16th birthday. In 2003, Nick was inducted into the Order of the Arrow, as elected by members of Troop 123. He went
through the Ordeal at Camp Parsons, and went on to be involved with the Order of the Arrow. Nick served in Lodge
Ceremonies Teams, as Lodge Inductions Vice-Chief, and attended the 2006 NOAC. Nick also served as Aurora District Camporee
Director for two years. He was awarded Brotherhood, and later was awarded the Vigil Honor in 2005. Nick worked on the Aquatics Staff of Camp Parsons in the summers of
2004, '05 and '06. In 2004, he also participated in the OA Trail Crew at Philmont Scout Ranch. In 2007, he was hired to be
one of twelve foreman to run the OA Trail Crew program at Philmont for the summer. Nick graduated from Ballard High School in 2006, and currently attends the University
of Washington. This is Nick's fourth year playing percussion with the UW Husky Marching Band, where he is a section leader.
He will graduate with a degree in Jazz Bass Performance in the spring of 2010 as an honors student, and plans to work as an
OATC Foreman at Philmont again in the summer of 2010. This past summer Nick traveled to Europe and Africa for one month with his girlfriend Katie. Together they
took the whole trip with only a daypack each, and had an unforgettable experience. Nick feels that his involvement with Scouting
has taught him lessons that have shaped his life in every way, and he is very thankful for the time he has spent with the
program. (Last updated September 19, 2009.)

| Howard Lincoln (2008) |
Howard Lincoln became a Troop 123
Eagle Scout on April 27, 1955
At the 1953 National Jamboree, with 50,000 Scouts gathered at Irvine, Calif.,
Howard Lincoln’s scoutmaster, Del Anderson, now 98, asked Howard and three other Scouts to set up a campsite on
a hill for artist Norman Rockwell. "It was a hot day. We built the fire, pitched the tents, and got
into our sleeping bags. Rockwell took about 100 photographs."
The result was the famous illustration of a star-filled night,
with four Scouts asleep by the campfire. That's Howard's face showing in the illustration, the first sleeping
Scout in the second tent on the right.
This illustration was the centerpiece for the 1956 Boy Scout calendar.
Rockwell sent Howard Lincoln a check for $5 and a letter of thanks that Howard treasures to this day. On January 27, 2006, Washington Governor Christine Gregoire appointed
Howard Lincoln to Western Washington University's Board of Trustees to fill an unexpired term ending on September 30,
2010. A key player in the formation
of the ownership group that saved the Seattle Mariners in 1992, Howard Lincoln was named chairman and chief executive officer
on September 27, 1999. Mr.
Lincoln retired from his position as chairman of Nintendo of America, Inc. to devote his full efforts to the Mariners on February
14, 2000. He joined Nintendo as its senior vice president and general counsel in January 1983. In February 1994, he was elected
to the board of Nintendo of America, Inc., and appointed chairman of the company. Philanthropy plays an important role in Mr. Lincoln's life. In addition
to his strong support of the Mariners Care Foundation, he serves as chairman of the Children's Hospital Foundation. He
was the 2003-2004 Campaign Chair of the United Way of King County. He serves on the boards of ArtsFund, the Bellevue Boys
& Girls Club, and the Chief Seattle Council of the Boy Scouts of America. Mr. Lincoln is a graduate of the University of
California of Berkeley, and holds a law degree from Boalt Hall, the University of California School of Law. Following graduation
from law school, Lincoln served as a Lieutenant in the U.S. Navy Judge Advocate General's Corps from 1966 to 1970. He
practiced law in Seattle from 1970 to 1982. Lincoln lives on Mercer Island with his wife, Grace. Their son Brad and his wife
Kim have two young sons, Ethan and Benjamin.
