Active Eagle Projects
- Blake Messa's Eagle Project
- Hi Troop 266. I will be working on my Eagle Project at Hermann Park this Sunday, March 23rd, from 8:30 AM-2PM. The address is 6530 Almeda Road. The project will involve mixing concrete and placing down stones around the educational pond for educational purposes. They will be raking leaves and other debris from an empty pond. Breakfast and lunch will be provided, as well as water and Gatorade. No tools will need to be brought. Bring a hat for sun protection; sunscreen will be provided as needed. If you can help with my project, please sign up via the link below.

- Ryan Wilson's Eagle Project
- I am doing a habitat restoration project at Hermann Park. I will be restoring an area near the railroad tracks in the newly developed southwest side of Hermann Park that opened to the public April 2024 known as The Commons. I will be working a 20 feet by 30 feet section of land, restoring the ground cover with plants that thrive naturally in this area of Texas. First, I will be clearing debris, unwanted tree saplings and large weeds, and then I will be planting bundles of Texas grass roots along with oat grama seeds. I will need to purchase approximately 30 bags of compost and bundles of roots from the Native American Seed website.
