Boy Scouts Add Ramp and Railing to Stewart Pond Bird Blind!

The Boy Scouts from Troop 100 recently installed a ramp and railing for the bird blind at Stewart Pond. In addition, the Scouts picked up litter, seeded 2 acres and removed some brush. The City of Eugene Stream Team provided direction and equipment. What a great project!
