C Eagle Scout Project

Back in May 2012 we set out to Blaine, WA to see about an Eagle Scout Project for C.  We met with one of the managers at the City of Blaine, and he told us about a 350' trail up on Lincoln Park that needed to be refurbished.  We thought "350' not a problem".  Well we will be thinking differently when it comes to T doing his project.

Here is the before picture.

There was a lot of measuring/determining what needed to be done before C could begin doing any work.

After he measured everything, then he decided to work on the bench that needed to be installed at the beginning of the trail.

This is what the board looked like when we got it from the City of Blaine

After a lot of work sanding, sanding, and more sanding, then painting...

The installed bench!

Then the hard work began.  C set up work parties and had people from church/friends and family come out and clear the path.

 Then the pit run needed to be put down:

We were really lucky with the nice weather that we had...until it was time to put down the road fabric and the gravel :(.  It was rainy and wet, but we are so thankful for everyone that came out and helped that day.

After all that was said and done and a few more days (ok, more like a couple more weeks) :)  we (really meaning C) finally finished the project.

The before and after pictures!
