- Chris Z Eagle Project
Hello Troop 965,
My upcoming Eagle Project will take place on Sunday, August 18 at 12:00. We will be constructing three standing gardens to allow easy access to those in wheelchairs. We will meet at Mr. Gulliford’s house (7416 N Ottawa) to construct the gardens and then transport them to Ascension Living St. Benedict Village just off Touhy/Milwaukee. Lunch will be provided for volunteers. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. If any parents have a pickup truck or large car and if they are willing to transport a garden (3’x3’x3’), please let me know.
Thanks,
Chris
| - Mystery Question What was the most popular merit badge in Scouting in 2023? And it’s not Bugling! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxrLPNBy9QA |  |
If you think you know the answer, write it on the back of a first-class ticket to Paris and drop it in my mailbox. Seriously, send your answer to me via email AND be sure to copy a parent. A correct answer that isn’t copied to a parent is disqualified. The first correct answer wins a fresh $1 bill and the undying respect of every member of the Troop!
See you on Monday night!
Mr. Pelrine
Scoutmaster, Troop 965
