Jake completed his Eagle Scout project at Marana
High School the weekend before he started
his freshman year there.
He organized an effort to clean up the landscaping
and plant 14 new trees in front of the school, as
well as re-paint the front gate.
The trees were donated by an organization
called "Trees Please", as well at Lowes and
he received donations from Fry's and Walmart
to buy some of the food for breakfast and
lunch which we served to all those who helped out.

and getting food ready!
It was a very hot day to be outside painting, but we
had tons of help and no complaints.
crew!
And John made his famous chili, of course, which is always
a big hit!
Each day Jake goes to school for the next
four years, he will get to watch the trees
grow and know that he was a part of making
his school a better place for everyone. We are
so proud of him!
Thanks to all the scouts,friends, family,
neighbors and ward members for all your help!
