June Court of Honor (Part One)

 On Monday, June 26th, the final meeting/Court of Honor was held.  We had a nice turnout, but because schools had been out for over a week, many were already on vacation.

 

 

Luke's Eagle Scout Project (Part 3)

 Although a great deal of work was completed on Day One, there was still more work to be completed.  So on the second day, the two main backdrops were painted and the movable door was put together.

 Here are some additional photos from Luke's Eagle Project.  Here we see two of the Scouts installing the castors at the bottom of the frames.  The frames were probably 30lbs pounds, the wheels were rated for 100lbs. 

Luke's Eagle Scout Project (Part One)

 After getting his Eagle Scout Project approved by the Potomac District Eagle Board Chair, work was undertaken on Sunday, June 4th.

The project was to build three mobile backdrops for the St. John School Auditorium Stage.  Two would be just backdrops and the third would have a door.  This could be used for plays and productions.  It should be noted that the door could also act as a backdrop.  

So, here are some photos from the construction.  In these photos, they are cutting the 2x4s for the backdrop frames.

 

 

Sweep the Creek (Part Two) - April 22, 2023

 

Sweep The Creek (Part One)

 

 

On April 22, 2023, Scout Troop 466 took part in the Sweep the Creek.

From the Friends of Sligo Creek:

During the Spring and Fall Sweep the Creek events, hundreds of people come out to help rid the park of trash, keep the water clean for wildlife and plants and experience the wonders of Sligo Creek in a new way. FOSC volunteers don gloves, boots, even waders, to collect an amazing variety of plastic, metal, glass and other trash that finds its way into the 8 mile length of Sligo Creek Park.
