Holman earned his Eagle..it truly was all him from start to finish. He chose his project. He called and arranged everything with the facility, called people to volunteer and led the group. He chose the Therapeutic Riding of Tucson. Its an organization that provides horse back riding to kids with physical and mental disabilities. The organization needed to put their sensory bridge in a new spot, it needed to be repainted too. It was an 8 hour experience. We had to unscrew the wood planks, dig out the old bridge, dig footers for the new bridge and paint it all. It was a ton of work! Holman showed his true grit when he passed his board of review and was awarded the Eagle rank and he still went back to the facility to paint their logo on the bridge .
Well done son. I had know idea how much work an eagle project really is. Watching you jump over all those hurdles was truly impressive. I can see why this rank is well known even outside the scouting community. What a honor to be your mom!
