Hello Scouts, Job Stirling here. I'm looking for help for my upcoming Eagle Project build on Sunday, February 15. The project will involve constructing a new in-ground planter box for Monterey Ridge Elementary School. This is a fairly large build, so all help is greatly needed and appreciated. This is also conservation service hours. Please see more details here on the website calendar.

Whether you are interested in joining us at an outing or prefer a "behind the scenes" support role, your contribution is vital.
