Eagle Project for Al

Alex got a great start on his Eagle Project on Saturday. He had such a great turnout of friends and neighbors and his leaders to help. We are all so grateful for the good people that live around us. A special thanks to Coach Thompson for all his help and direction and his keys to the kingdom....
The project was at our bran new Salem Hills High School. We unboxed what seemed like 1,000,000 bran new textbooks, stamped them with the school name, numbered them, and then stacked them in the correct classrooms. It turned out to be a really fun morning and Al ended up with about 84 of the 100 or so hours he needs to complete his project.
We also helped Coach Thompson uncrate and carry the new mats for the high jump pit to the shed. When the hurdles arrive, we will help make them look really awesome, too, with our new "perfect" (blue, of course) school colors. That will finish up his project. Thanks to all who came to help Al become a "Big Bird".


New High Jump Mat unboxed, and headed to the Track shed.
Moving along.
It takes a few more people to carry this one. It must be heavier...
Yup, I am going to take your picture, Coach Thompson, even if you glare at me.
No Al, we won't give you a ride.
