Aiden's FUN Eagle Scout workday!

Posted on Apr 3 2025 - 8:28pm

"Hi everyone, if you are free on Saturday the 12th, I would appreciate some help! We will be building and priming two small benches and a stool, and the work will be more fun and hands-on instead of shoveling or something. It will be at my house: 11021 Gold Star Lane, Santa Ana, CA 92705. I will be hosting two shifts: 8:00-12:00 and 12:00-4:00. I will have FOOD, and definitely feel free to stay for both shifts. 
 
If you have a drill or impact driver I can borrow for the day, I would like to borrow 2 of each. Please add that as a note under your signup, along with if you will be attending shift 1, 2, or both. 
 
Please bring gloves if you have them.
 
*I will only take scouts 14+ because we will be using power tools.*
 
See you there!"

Aiden Rodrigo Eagle Scout Project: Outdoor Learning Benches

Posted on Mar 29 2025 - 2:34pm

Hello Troop 235!

My name is Aiden Rodrigo, and I am a Life Scout in our troop. I am currently working on my Eagle Project fundraising. My project will be to create an outdoor learning station consisting of 2 benches and a teacher's stool. These will be made for Mitchell Early Child Development Center, and I will paint them with fun bright colors. The teachers can utilize them as a tool to teach outdoors in a new and engaging way!

Any donations to the fundraising for this project will be greatly appreciated!

Event Details:
This is an introduction to Backpacking trip for Troop 235 scouts. Prior experience with backpacking is not required to sign up for this trip.

Every participant (youth and adult) will need to have their own backpack along with all the necessary gear to camp overnight. Troop leadership will provide a demonstration of backpacking gear at the troop meeting on Tuesday, March 4th 2025.

There will be a mandatory gear check at the troop meeting on March 11th. All participants (youth and adult) need to bring their backpacks along with all gear for review with Mr. Gogosha.

Unfortunately, REI no longer offers rental program for backpacking packs. Crew members are
encouraged to use their scouting funds from Tree Lot 2024 to look for good deals on backpacks. It is highly recommended to get your backpack fitted properly. REI staff are very good at offering tips on proper fitting of backpacks.

Our troop will travel to Hubert Eaton Scout Reservation. Upon arrival, crew members will hike for a distance between 3 and 5 miles to reach our campsite.
 The campsite has access to potable (drinking water)
