My name is Reece F. and I am currently working toward the rank of Eagle Scout. For my Eagle Scout Project, I will be creating a walking trail at Lake Minear in Libertyville. The project will include planting native plants and installing signs, providing a space for the community to enjoy nature and support the local ecosystem. (more below the fold)
All - Our October campout will be at Blackwell Forest Preserve with a trip to the Cantigny war museum on Saturday afternoon. We'll also do some orienteering at Blackwell's course Saturday morning. More information about the museum and tank park .
