The APL is announcing this week that the Texas Trails Council of the Boy Scouts of America will receive the Heritage Stewardship Community Service Award at the annual luncheon on May 4.
“The Preservation League at the Swenson House has benefited greatly from a number of Eagle Scout leadership projects which have enhanced the grounds,” said Bill Minter, Executive Director of the League. “Beginning with Hudson Beard’s restoration of the fish pond, which had not had any water in it for more than 60 years, there have been five Scouts to date who have completed their projects,” Minter said. “We are so grateful for the work these Scouts have done, and want to recognize the good that the organization does through the area governing council, the Texas Trails Council.”
Tickets to the luncheon are available for $45, or a table of eight for $500. Reservations may be made online or by calling the APL offices at 325-676-3775.
