EAGLE SCOUT PROJECTS


The Library has been the recepient of not one but two spectacular
 Eagle Scout Projects from
Boy Scout Troop 117 in Runnemede, NJ

In 2006, Christopher Casad of Glendora, NJ along with assistance from family, friends and community installed the first of two gardens as part of a beautification project on library property.
Chris's project included, a circular bed with a weeping cherry tree, four concrete benches circling the bed, a handicap accessible picnic table and brick lining of the walkway to the library entrance.
This year, 2008, Christopher Foody, from Runnemede, along with Troop 117, family, friends and community built a forty foot planting bed to grace the front of the library facing the Black Horse Pike.  The project not only included the brick structure but the enormous amout of planting material as well as the beautiful plants in the bed itself.
