Steven's Eagle Project was an extensive trail renewal effort at Upton Hills Regional Park (Arlington), taking about 400 man-hours to complete. A very badly needed project; other than Adam Smith's project in 2000, the trails at Upton Hills have been neglected for (too) many years.

Steven is interested in majoring in electrical engineering at George Mason University.

...and lest we forget, "Happy 18^th Birthday, Steven!"

Thanks to the Board of Review members Dan Creedon, Hank Dettmar, Carl Doughman, and Jim Smith.
