Hello, my name is David Hojnowski and I'm a Life Scout with Troop 353 (Bennington, Vermont). I've been in scouting since I was 7 years old and I'm so excited to now be working on my eagle service project. I wanted to do something to benefit my "alma mater", Pownal Elementary. It is a great rural school here in southern Vermont. I learned that the school has wanted soccer goals for some time, but they have been unable to afford them. This really spoke to me "“ I had played soccer myself for 10 years and loved the game. I also remembered playing soccer during recess out behind the school, so I could imagine how much the goals would be used and appreciated.
For my Eagle Project I will be constructing 2 soccer goals for the school, as well as hosting a mini soccer clinic. I am fund-raising to cover the cost of the goals. I would be most grateful for contributions of any size to help. Any extra money that is donated will be given directly to Pownal Elementary School.
