Catherine is responsible for management of the advancement databases that Troop 412 uses to track the completion of requirements the Scouts need to advance through Scouting. Without her work, the submissions from the Scouts would not be accurately nor timely recorded to help the Scouts advance. As Troop 412 is a benefit to the parish (flag ceremonies, volunteer hours to other organizations within the parish, Eagle Projects completed for and around the St. Monica campus), Catherine's work with the Scouts and for the Troop directly affects the Troop's and Scouts' abilities to help the parish and other ministries within the parish. As Scouts age out of Scouting, their parents typically depart from the Troop also; however, although Catherine's son has aged out of the Troop, she continues to volunteer her time. Catherine exemplifies Catholic values with duty and service to others!
