Eagle Project # 1

Nothing like waiting until the last minute...
But yeah!!!!! One project down, two to go...
A great group to spend an early Saturday morning with...
Rain or shine...the project was on...

Mckay had his eagle project this last Saturday morning. He will be 18 years at the end of February so he was running out of time. Not that he did not have ample time to plan a project. All McKay had to do since March of '06 is his project...but hey...no complaints here because he ended up really doing it!

We might have bribed some with donuts...

He decided to repair some benches and a table at a local elementary school...he with a few of his friends with one great Tony Powell (thank you) pre cut the pieces on Friday after school...the actual repairing took place the next morning...a HUGE thank you to everyone who showed up to support Mckay...it was a good time while doing something worthwhile...even with weather conditions less than ideal...I will also go on the record and continue to state that we seriously have the BEST YM leaders in the world...yep thats right...love to them all!

  1. Way to go McKay!!! Thanks for the example for Camden. When is his Court of Honor? So cool. I'm sure he would say that behind him (and YM leaders) is a great mom who helped encourage the effort. The benches look fabulous. Hey...does he do built-in bookshelves? ...just checking. Love you guys!
