We Appreciate the Help

We would like to thank Alex Sokolow, Park & Recreation supervisor at Haddam Meadows State Park. Mr. Sokolow helped us decide where to put the benches along the paths and his team installed the benches. Thanks go to Bryan Swahn of Swahn Engraving and Imaging for donating two plaques. We are grateful to Amanda Watrous, another scout in our troop, for assisting with this project. Thanks, also, go to Ron Sacchi for sharing his tools and woodworking knowledge.

Finally, a big thank you goes to the staff at Tuxis True Value Lumber and Hardware for generously donating all the wood and hardware needed to build both benches.
