KOCSIS IMPROVES TURF & DRAINAGE AT SHELDON TOWN PARK


Jeremy Kocsis of Troop 474 in Bennington led a community service project that saw replacement of the mulch at the town of Sheldon's playground. The surface had become overgrown, so several inches of soil had to be removed.

There was no existing drainage system, so Jeremy and a group of volunteers installed drain pipes, followed by a few inches of gravel, landscaping fabric and finally playground mulch.

It was an extensive project that saw the use of an excavator and skid steer. Jeremy also procured donations of all supplies, including 18 tons of stone!
