When Will Monnin moved to the Hamilton Heights School district in 2019, he didn’t know anyone.
Monnin, a member of Boy Scout Troop #183, soon found friends and a place to belong when he joined the Hamilton Heights Cross Country team in the fifth grade. Since then, his love of the sport and for his teammates has only grown.
When he was thinking about starting his Eagle Scout project, Monnin knew exactly what he wanted to do – help improve Hamilton Heights’ 3.1-mile Cross Country course.
“My Eagle Scout project plan includes adding more directional and distance signage, a course map, and an enclosed case for the team roster, records, and pictures,” he explained.
Heights’ Cross Country program involves some 65 boys and girls in grades 5 through 12. This project will benefit the district and current and future cross country team members. To make this happen, Monnin has created a website and has embarked on a marketing campaign to help raise interest and support in the form of donations, in-kind service, and money to purchase materials for the project. To learn more about this project and how you can help go to monnineagleproject.com.
Monnin’s goal is to raise at least $3,000 and complete the project before the start of the 2024-25 season.
