Some animals at Great Bend’s Brit Spaugh Zoo were able to bear this week’s bitter cold spell in newly winterized quarters, thanks to two young men working on Eagle Scout projects. Bryce Divis and Nathan Brungardt, both Scouts in Troop 157, chose to build winter animals enclosures, Zoo Director Scott Gregory said. Both projects were completed in November.
