Greatest Volunteer impact
An amazing group of guys from the local Union of Operating Engineers, Local 542 volunteered TWO DAYS of their time to get the excavating complete.
The site is perfect!
A great big THANK YOU to Jim Irwin, Lehigh Valley Labor Council President and Rob Fulmer for organizing the labor efforts.
it's go time
The excavation started on a chilly morning 10/9/24 and completed on an even colder morning 10/10/24. A lot of care was taken to ensure that the completed excavation met all of the BASD Engineers requirements, but also that the dirt was hauled off site, and the grassy areas were not trampled or damaged.
site is complete & the pipe is gone
The site is ready for the sensory walkway, the drainage under systems, the borders, the rubber mulch, and individual play features to be installed. There is still a lot to do, but the completion of the site prep is a huge, almost unmanageable weight has been lifted from my shoulders, as it was impeding all progress.
Interview with Lehigh Valley News
I had an interview with Mr. Phil Gianficaro of Lehigh Valley News. He seemed genuinely interested in my story and why I chose Colonial IU20's Early Intervention Program as the beneficiary for my Eagle Scout Project. I am eager to see the article and share it with everyone!
REady for the Excavator
I went to the site to stake out the play areas and sensory walkways that are to be excavated. I am hopeful that the site prep will begin soon!
Paint DAY
Troop 76 and their families came to my home to paint the wood for the train feature.
WORK DAY
As I am prepping to build the wooden train feature, my neighborhood friends saw me & my family working and they all came to lend a hand. I am fortunate to have friends that rally behind me!!
