Eagle Project
William’s Eagle Project was the renovation of the Chapel at the Gospel Rescue Ministries, a homeless shelter in Washington, D.C. The renovation consisted of painting the walls and ceiling, installing a new floor of tile, and installing window blinds, curtains, and sound baffling. The project required 639 hours of work.*
* A new Troop record, besting several previous 500+ hour Eagle Projects.
