Brendan's Eagle Project was resurfacing two shuffleboard courts and building a bocce court at Upton Hills Regional Park in Arlington. You will be pleased to hear that this is Arlington County's "one and only" bocce court! This project, which was termed by Ranger Brian Henessey as "outstanding" and "very professional," took just over 250 man-hours of work to complete.
Brendan will be attending Virginia Tech University this fall, to study
in their Computer Science Program.
Thanks to the Board of Review members Hank Dettmar, John Manning, Gordon Pennington, Rita Rooney, and Jim Smith.
