Ryan Peterson coordinated a scout project for a case that displays aerial maps of Lake Zurich.
The Lake Zurich village board recognized Ryan Peterson, at the July 2 meeting, with a certificate of appreciation. Peterson built a cabinet which houses aerial maps of Lake Zurich. Peterson built the cabinet to make changing the maps easier. Previously the map was picked off and the new map was glued in its place. The cabinet makes swapping the maps easy.
