Sammamish Trails Boy Scouts volunteer on projects to enhance riparian habitat and clean residential stormwater.

Hi John and Bob- The Council’s 100th anniversary team is (finally) beginning to follow up with all the service project requests. We realize of course that this is long overdue, and we are grateful for your patience as the service project team is a work in progress.

It turns out you both requested the same project and I’ve contacted Peter Holte at City of Redmond Public Works and he’s suggested that we wait until early next year and throughout the spring to complete some of these projects including: stenciling and gluing buttons on/near storm drains, a planting/species removal event around Earth Day, and participate in the Cascade Land Conservancy that would involve harvesting, cutting and pounding willow branches near streams (neat project for younger Scouts that cannot glue the buttons).

Thank you both for your participation and encourage you to continue to submit projects as you see the need. Bob, we’d love to get some of these projects, once in action, posted on your Redmond blog of course!

Thanks again,
