Kavi Miller - Eagle Scout Project Bradford Hole 16
My name is Kavi Miller,
I am currently a Life Scout in Troop 178 Concord NC and I am working on my Eagle Scout rank. I've got big plans to help with safety and erosion control.
In order to complete my project I will need help funding my Eagle Scout project, that's where you come in!
Project Description:
- My project will benefit Bradford Disc Golf Course in Huntersville, NC.
- After my project is complete hole 16 will be safer, longer lasting, and have beautiful landscaping.
- Hole 16 is the centerpiece of this course and it’s a shame that over time erosion has made it much
more likely to slip and fall especially when it's wet.

Planned Solution.
1) Box in the Tee-Pad so players can't slip off
2) Installing 20-30 wooden steps down the steep hill. This will help with foot traffic erosion as well as slips and falls.
3) Adding additional hand rails across the existing bridge - Safety First!
4) Installing an additional step to help with the bridge transition. Cart people will appreciate the shorter drop.
5) Building a retaining wall in front and behind of the long basket complete with steps.
This is my first major project and I can't do it by myself. I am excited to involve volunteers from across the community. I plan on holding several work days to complete each of the (5) mini projects.
Lastly, Lowes has been gracious enough to provide my project with the materials at cost totaling $1752.66. But more expenses are expected with the delivery of rocks and fill dirt and unexpected materials.
Your donation will make it safer to enjoy playing the beautiful Bradford Park Disc Golf Course. Since I started planning this project the
price of wood has gone up dramatically. Any donation will help this community goal and I appreciate all of you for taking interest in my project and thank you all for donating. Any donations that exceed my goal will be given to the Charlotte Disc Golf Club.
Thanks Everyone!
