Having joined Scouts in 8th grade, Christopher had to work a little harder to achieve the rank of Eagle. To earn his Eagle Scout award, he earned 36 merit badges, served the troop as Assistant Sr. Patrol Leader, Sr. Patrol Leader, Historian, and Bugler. Christopher is now an Assistant Scoutmaster. His leadership service project consisted of designing, obtaining materials, and providing leadership for the Memorial Garden at Jefferson Hills Presbyterian Church. Engraved stones and a walkway were built and a bench designed and constructed. The area was also landscaped.
Recently honored at his Court of Honor, Christopher received a citation from State Representative Rick Saccone, who participated in the ceremony. He also received a citation from Congressman Tim Murphy, and letters of congratulations from West Jefferson Hills School District Acting Superintendent Hamsini Rajgopal, Jefferson Hills Police Chief Eugene Roach, and Mayor Michael Green.
Christopher plans to attend Robert Morris University in the fall, majoring in computers. He is a member of the National Honor Society, Computer Club, Outdoors Club, Jazz Band, and Marching/Concert Band. Christopher is the son of Ron, Jr. and Ellen Bredel.
