Saturday, July 26th, Boy Scout Troop 55 will be giving several Brookfield park shelters an interior face lift.
I happened to catch a sneak peek at my area's Kinsey Park the other night. The scout in the photo told me his troop would be painting 3 shelter interiors on Saturday.
Look for CNI story about this--the painting family (mom was there too) said the paper would be sending a reporter.
Boy Scouts are required to do service projects. Kinsey Park already has benefited from an Eagle Scout project a few years ago. The perennial plantings by the sign were one scout's service project.
The scouts also do periodic park clean ups and have spread wood chips on the trails from time to time.
I'm sure the Boy Scouts are inundated with lots of ideas for projects. Maybe they could add building Heron nesting boxes or bat and purple
martin houses (natural mosquito control) for our wetlands to their list?
Thanks scouts and scout parents for all you do!
Don't forget, the Hot Air Tour Press Conference has been moved from Miller Park to AFP headquarters on Saturday
Kinsey Park pier project is completed
