Nathaniel Klamut of O'Hara Township earned Boy Scouting's highest rank when he successfully completed the Eagle Scout Board of Review on March 6, 2024. The son of Elizabeth and John Klamut, Nathaniel led a team of youth and adult volunteers in planning, organizing and installing a sandbox and raised garden bed at Fox Hill Preschool at Faith United Methodist Church in Fox Chapel. The existing structure was a garden bed that had fallen into severe disrepair over the years. Klamut and his team removed the old garden bed, cleared the land around the old garden and constructed a new raised garden bed and added a sandbox. Preschoolers at Fox Hill can now play in the sandbox and learn small gardening tasks in the new, safer and more attractive structure. His project will serve young people for years to come. A junior at Fox Chapel Area High School, Klamut's activities outside of Scouting include Volleyball and Marching Band. He also takes a number of advanced math courses. He has his sights set on college with a focus on engineering and economics. His parents speak with pride of his desire to use his Eagle Scout Project to serve preschool students and encouraging them to enjoy outdoor fun. Klamut credits his time and leadership opportunities as a member of Troop 380 in the Japeechen District for his desire to serve others and encourage young people to enjoy the outdoors.

It's a 19th century supernatural winter epic. It's a slapstick homage to silent films. It's a whole bunch of humans dressed up in beaver suits. It's Hundreds of Beavers, the one-of-a-kind film drawing crowds to theaters across the nation, opening at The Lindsay Theater and Cultural Center Friday, April 26. Directed by Mike Cheslik in just his second feature effort, the film stars Ryland Brickson Cole Tews as failed applejack salesman/fur trapper Jean Kayak, who is on a mission to collect beaver pelts in order to make a living and win the heart of a local furrier. Local beavers, understandably, object. The film has racked up awards at numerous festivals, including Best Comedy and Audience Award at the Jim Thorpe Independent Film Festival, Best Director at the Phoenix Film Festival and Best Narrative Feature at the Oxford, Mississippi Film Festival. "This DIY delight…is sure to develop a significant cult following with its unique mix of silent-era slapstick, animation elements, theme-park-style critter costumes, and general air of inspired absurdity," says Variety. "On paper, it would hardly be expected to remain funny for eight minutes, let alone 108. But this ingeniously home-made lark never runs out of steam." Beaver County residents, how can you resist? Residents of all counties are welcome to watch what the New York Times calls "a madcap genre-hopper" with a "cineaste's discernment" behind its hilarious surface. Tickets. The Lindsay Theater and Cultural Center is an independent, film-driven arts nonprofit located at 418 Walnut St. in Sewickley.
