What an excellent project choice! Not sure I would have thought of it but nothing is sadder to see than neglected cemeteries. And congratulations to your son for achieving the rank of Eagle Scout. I have personally seen instances where this title has benefited a young man in terms of networking and even getting a job.

Like casting loaves upon the water, I think his efforts will pay him back ten fold.

Congrats. We have a troop in our county that is cleaning and resetting headstones at an old veteran cemetery now.

Awesome

Good for him!

When is his board of review?





I built planter boxes, that were handicap accessible for a retirement home. Getting the materials donated was the hardest part. The deal in my family was that I had to get my Eagle, before I could get my drivers license. My brother and I both got it done before we were 16.



I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately...

Good deal!

I fought with my parents all through HS for not letting me quit scouts. I Eagled and now years removed I look back and definitely appreciate my time in Scouts. Troop 108. My maternal grandfather got to claim/brag all(4) of his grandsons were Eagles.

Having done that a couple 1000 times growing up, I do not envy him .
Good on him though, it really gives new life to those old cemeteries.

Would you mind sharing what he is cleaning them with?

Varsol works really good then clean with dawn, if it's really bad muratic acid.

Great project. Congrats to the new Eagle!

Well done and congratulations!

How do you raise them? Did you have to dig them out, or was something injected underneath them to raise them up?

Dug them out and used pry bars
