For his Eagle Scout project, A.J. Roberts constructed an area for the installation of a triple flagpole at the Monroe Town Hall building.
The project included the installation of the triple flagpole, creating a stone border around the flagpole area, installation of lighting, planting and mulching at the base of the flagpoles, as well as a commemorative plaque.
A.J. was diligent in planning and executing his plans throughout this project.He hosted a community pancake breakfast to assist in his fund-raising efforts for the project and communicated progress on a regular basis with the Town Supervisor.
As project leader, A.J. had the support and assistance of several Troop 440 members and leaders as well as the Town of Monroe Highway Department in successfully reaching his goal.
“The addition of a flagpole not only helps to beautify the grounds of Town Hall,” Town Supervisor Tony Cardone said in the press release detailing the accomplishment, “but also serves as an important reminder of the freedoms we are blessed to enjoy both in New York State and our country as a whole.”
