Troop 24’s Alex C will be collecting donations and having work days for his Eagle project this week. Here is some information from Alex:
My project is planting a garden to attract hummingbirds at Patriots’ Park in Riverside.
The garden will also provide a nice view for park goers.
I will be using gladiolus, catmint, allium, hyacinth, and hydrangeas to create this garden.

Volunteers are needed to help pull up a weeds and lay down the plating soil and fertilizer. Then they will plant the bulbs and plants into the ground.

Between the date of July 22-28 I’ll be collecting donations for this project:

Donations could either be needed plants and bulbs – hydrangeas, hyacinth, gladiolus, catmint, allium or money for the purchase of these items.
If donations are plants, it would be preferable if they were already dug out and put into a marked pot with dirt. Plants and bulbs can be left at Patriots’ Park (behind the benches by the bricks with names on them) this week. If you wish to make a donation of money, checks should be made out to Troop 24 (note “Alex’s Eagle project” on memo line) and email committeechair@troop24riverside.com to have your donation picked up.

Volunteer work days will be July 29 to July 31 from 8 a.m. to noon each day, with volunteers working in two hour shifts. Both adult and scout volunteers are needed. Thank you for your help!
