For my (Fred) Eagle Scout Project I am restoring an 18th century cemetery. Several revolutionary war solders are buried in this cemetery including Captain Daniel Vliet whose troops diverted the British long enough to allow George Washington to escape across the Delaware.
On November 20th the Daughters of the American Revolution have scheduled a rededication ceremony at the cemetery. The ceremony will begin at 2:00 at the Heritage Park Pavilion rain or shine. All scouts interested in participating please meet at the Pavilion by 1:45. Please wear Class A uniforms, and since it will be cold also bring a scout jacket. The ceremony will be outside so dress for the cold. I need as many scouts as possible to attend, so if you can make it please come. All Scouts, Leaders, and their families are welcome to attend.
This weekend I have scheduled workdays for my project that count as service hours for rank. I need lots of help this weekend because I need to put barkchips down on the trail to the cemetery. The schedule is Saturday from 9-12 am and Sunday from 12-3 . Please bring a shovel, a rake, and gloves. We meet near the 9/11 memorial at Heritage Park.
