MATT VIOLET'S EAGLE PROJECT
June 21 and 28, 2005 |
Bicycling is forbidden on the Palos Colorados Trail for safety reasons because it is steep and narrow.
On June 18th, 25th, and 26th, Troop 202 helped implement this rule by building signs and fences
at each end of the trail. Scouts spent the first day painting two signs with rollers, brushes, and
stencils. The next two days of work included assembling and installing the wooden fences. In the end,
two fences and a sign clearly stating the prohibition of bicycles on the path were constructed at
each end of the Palos Colorados Trail. About 20 scouts combined for nearly 200 man-hours on
the project. |
