Donations and Volunteers needed for Eagle Project

Hello Troop 24 families!  I am collecting items for the Guardian Corps of America for my Eagle Scout Project. They are a public charity that focuses on helping the homeless and homeless veterans. I have several boxes at different locations including the North Riverside Town Hall, Riverside Foods, Riverside Town Hall, and my House, where items can be dropped off. Items I am collecting include;  bars of soap, men’s socks (size 11-14), men’s underwear (size Lg, XL and XXL), and women’s socks (size 7-11). I am also collecting canned goods, however only those with easily removable lids. All socks and underwear must be new. The deadline for the collection will be May 6th. 
I will also need scouts to help check boxes every 2x every week and bring items to my house. They will need to check the boxes on Tuesdays and Fridays.  Each box will have bags to help with removal with another bag under to be pulled up.  Additionally I will have a date to sort and pack all of the different items to drop off at Guardian Corps of America.
If you are interested in volunteering or have questions, please email me at: fedorski.kenny0@gmail.com. I will have a sort and pack workday TBD.
Thanks for your support!
Kenny Fedorski

Congratulations!

To Troop 24’s newest Eagle Scout, Mateo Cubas.

 

Eagle Board of Review – Adult Volunteers Needed

I am in need of 3-4 adults to sit on an Eagle Board of Review on Monday, March 7 at 7:00 PM at the Riverside Presbyterian Church. Current Eagle Scouts who are 18 are encouraged to volunteer.  Sitting on an Eagle Board is a very rewarding opportunity to be a part of a Scout’s final step to achieving the rank of Eagle. No experience is necessary.  If you have not sat on an Eagle Board previously I can provide you with resources to familiarize yourself with topics that are discussed at the Board.  Additionally, the Board is run by our Council Representative. The time commitment is approximately 1-1 1/2 hrs.  Wearing a mask is recommended.

If you are available to help please RSVP by email me at dmgmitro@aol.com.

Thank you,

Jesus J Eagle Project – Volunteers Needed!

Volunteers are needed to help on Jesus J’s Eagle project.
Please read his message and sign up if you can help!
“Hi everyone, my name is Jesus and I am a current Life Scout working on my Eagle Scout. The project I picked is to fix and repair the Riverside Little League Shed. I am currently looking for volunteers to help me. Here is the link to the signup genius. It would be great if we could get together the weekend of November 13-14 and work on it as much as possible before the snow hits. As a former little league player I have many memories playing through Riverside Little League and wish for this to continue for kids to come. Please consider signing up to volunteer as it would make a big impact on the kids, coaches, and community in general. Thank you for your time and consideration and helping me with this project.
