Active Eagle Projects

Thomas Jackson's Eagle Project

  • My name is Thomas Jackson of Troop 266 and I am looking for donations to help me complete my Eagle Scout project.
  • My Eagle Scout project involves renovating an old children's classroom at St Andrews Presbyterian Church to make it safe and effective to use for families needing child care during Sunday worship and other community times.

Conrad Tamm's Eagle Project

  • Working with the Strake Jesuit Art Museum, my Eagle Scout project consisted of refinishing 4 large art boards used to display art, as well as cleaning 30 outdoor sculptures around campus. The project took place on April 12th from 10:00-4:00 and April 13th from 10:00-2:00 at the Strake Jesuit Campus. I will be making a video of the statuary for the museum.

Jack Williams' Eagle Project

  • Hi, my name is Jack Williams and I am beginning my fundraising for my Eagle Scout Project. My Eagle Scout project will be helping Small Steps Nurturing Center with building butterfly gardens on two of their campuses. Small Steps is a nonprofit organization that helps provide children of all backgrounds with a pre-school education. These butterfly gardens will be a meaningful teaching device for the children of the school. If you would like to donate to the Eagle Scout Project I have attached my fundraising link below. All donations are greatly appreciated to help me purchase equipment and materials for this project.
