Help needed for Eagle project

By Roland
Scouts, Troop Leaders and Troop Parents,

I am currently working on my Eagle Project at the First Presbyterian Church.  My project involves renovating the area behind the troop sheds.  This is going to involve several work days and a lot work.  First, we will be moving the troop sheds onto the pavement and facing them across the parking lot.  Second, we will be cleaning and clearing miscellaneous items (cement, cement block, old wood, old pallets, grass piles and logs) from the area.  Next, a few trees will need to be removed.  Followed by installing a privacy fence being built along the south side and 2 shrub fences being placed along the east and west side of the area.  The last step will involve inserting a firepit and concrete benches in the center.  This project will allow the church to make this space into a useable area for not only church activities but also for scouting activities.  I will be needing to schedule many workdays to make this project happen.  The first two are listed below. Reminder -- You will get service hours for any time donated.  If you would like to sign up let me know, I will also have a sign up sheet at next Tuesday's Troop meeting.  I appreciate your consideration and support. 
  • Saturday, October 5th -- Noon to 6:00 PM -- We will be moving sheds on this day.  This is going to require roughly 12 scouts and 6-8 adults.  (FYI --- Buckeye game is not on until 8:00 PM).  We will be emptying the sheds in order to move them, we will move them and then be refilling the sheds.  If you sign up for this day, please wear long pants/shirts, hats and closed toed shoes.  Please also bring some gloves.  Drinks, food and snacks will be provided.  We may also begin work on clearing out some of the debris on this day.
  • Sunday, October 6th -- 1:00 - 5:00 PM -- We will be cleaning out debris (cement blocks, old logs, grass piles, cement, etc.)  This workday is going to require roughly 8 scouts and 4 adults.  If you sign up for this day, please wear long pants/shirts, hats and closed toed shoes.  Please also bring some gloves.  Drinks, food and snacks will be provided.

Thanks,

Andy Price

Tyler's Eagle Project

By Roland
Parents and Scouts: Please see the attached note from Tyler Straight – He needs your assistance on his Eagle Project.  Please assist if you can. Thanks. Kirk Bohanan Scoutmaster Troop 136     Hey everyone! Tyler Straight here.    First of all, I'd like to thank everyone who attended my Eagle Scout Project this weekend. While we were unable to work Sunday, the crew that arrived on Saturday did a magnificent job. We painted nearly everything we needed to, and we removed an impressive amount of gravel in our small four hour window. Everyone worked hard and were respectful, and I couldn't ask for any more than that.    To continue this good work, I will again be holding two work days this weekend, Saturday, July 19th from 8:00 a.m to 12:00 p.m. and Sunday, July 20th from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. behind Grove City High School at 4665 Hoover Rd. I similar equipment to last time, such as wheelbarrows, shovels, and rakes. I will not, however, need any paint...
