Emergency workers will have an easier time finding the homes they need to get to in the Kingston, Massachusetts, area, thanks to J. Matthew Judge '06.

Judge, who recently became an Eagle Scout, spent several months identifying houses in his community that either had no street numbers on them, or had the wrong numbers, along with about 30 fellow Boy Scouts. The project was suggested by Kingston Building Inspector Paul Armstrong to Judge's father, Assessor James C. Judge, and the Scouts took it on as a worthwhile community safety program. After the houses with missing or incorrect numbers were identified, occupants were sent letters by the city's building department.

Judge is a graduate of Boston College High School, and is interested in majoring in environmental studies at St. Lawrence.
