Kyle Ogden Eagle project (4/18)

Message:

Hi, My name is Kyle Ogden and I am working on my Eagle Scout project for Mohawk Elementary School. My project will be resurfacing the baseball field at Mohawk Elementary School. This project will require laying fresh infield soil on top of the previous layer, which hasn’t been touched in many years.

Please bring work gloves, shovels, and dirt rakes. Wheelbarrows will also be helpful.

COTTONWOOD Fundraiser

Troop 1001,

Yes, it’s that time of year again! Time to show our Scout Spirit and support the Troop’s biggest fundraiser of the year—the Cottonwood Art Festival.

I will be making multiple announcements over the next several weeks, but suffice it to say we need maximum assistance and participation.

Adults! We REALLY need your help on Thursday and Friday while school is still in session. I know it’s a big ask, but if you have the ability to flex your time or take PTO, it benefits the Troop immensely.

Thank you for all you do to make our program amazing for our boys!

YIS,

Chris Dudley

Hi, my name is Preston Foust and I’m working on my Eagle Scout project! I’m building sensory discovery boards/ walls for the active learning students at Brentfield Elementary. These boards will give students hands-on activities that help them explore, learn, and have fun while engaging their senses.

I would love your help to make this project happen! You can volunteer to help with tasks like sanding, painting, attaching sensory items, and making sure everything is sturdy and safe. Everyone is welcome to join THIS WEEKEND. (3-28-3/29)

You can sign up to help here and if you’d like to support you can donate here. Every bit of help counts and will make a big difference for the students.

Thank you for helping me create something that will bring joy and learning opportunities to these amazing kids!

Thank you

-YIS Preston Foust
