Earth Day Eagle Projects

Yesterday was 4/20/13 or Earth day a day to support environmental protection. On this day we had Sam & Gabe Reardon’s Eagle projects.

These were two different projects both at one area (Chism Beach Park).

Sam’s project was to renew a trail by placing mulch to preserve the trail. We would use wheelbarrows to move the mulch and spread it across the trail. Gabe’s project was to remove ivy and other invasive species in the nearby area. It was hard and dirty work due to the steep incline of the slope and the mud but this project was a success as well.

Overall I think this was a great way to celebrate Earth Day as well as help maintain the trail and its slopes. Congratulations to our soon to be Eagle scouts.
