Fundraising




My name is Glen Pool. I am a senior at South Medford High School and I'm working on achieving my Eagle Scout Rank with the Boy Scouts of America.

In order to get my Eagle Scout Rank, I need to complete an Eagle Project. The project I selected is to build benches for Camp Esther Applegate, a campground rented to various church and community programs. The current benches are in poor condition. My plan is to make them shorter and lighter so that they can accommodate people in wheelchairs and be easier to store during times of non-use.

I have been trying to get donations of lumber from various lumber yards, but due to the current economy, all of them have been unable to donate any wood.

I need donations in order to complete my project or I will be unable to complete my project on time. I need to raise a total of $345.15 to cover the cost of lumber, paint and screws.

If you are able to donate, please use the paypal link below. If I collect more money than $345.15, the overages will go to support other Eagle Projects. I will not keep it for myself.

  1. An Eagle project, a limited edition print and Mom guilt? How could we resist?!

  3. You don't know me, but I know your mom through Eric D Snider's message board, and she graciously let my kids and I stay for a night as we were driving from California to Washington two summers ago. We were very grateful. :)

    I hope you are able to raise the funds needed to complete your Eagle Scout project. Good luck!
