Scout Troop 28, Burlingame CA |

My name is Johnny Willey, and I am a Junior at Burlingame High School and a Boy Scout in Troop 28 based in Burlingame, California. I am currently working on my Eagle Scout Project, which is a drive for musical instruments benefiting the elementary and middle schools in the Burlingame School District.

Please watch this video for an introduction to the project and me: https://youtu.be/yzWnanN6vUI

I am passionate about trumpet and I learned how to play through the Burlingame School District, so I want to give other kids in the district the opportunity to have the same experience that I had.

Do you have an instrument that you would like to donate? If so, please contact me at this email address, eaglescoutprojectjdw@gmail.com, and either myself or one of my volunteers will come pick it up. If not, would you be willing to donate money towards refurbishing and purchasing supplies for the instruments? If enough money is raised we could purchase a few new instruments for the Burlingame School District. Here is the link to my GoFundMe page if you would prefer to donate money: gf.me/u/yyj4s5.

Here is a list of examples of instruments that the school district needs: flutes, clarinets, saxophones, trumpets, trombones, drums, drumsticks, and stringed instruments (which have just been added to the BIS repertoire so there is a special need for these).

The drive will be finished on 10/5/20 so please contact me by then if you wish to donate!

Thanks so much for your consideration!

Eagle Project: Help Needed

From: Nikhil Mummaneni - I am reaching out to involve scouts in my tutoring project.

I started JTS tutoring with a friend and have grown it to include around 60 high school student tutors from my school. We have tutees from Crystal Springs middle school, Hillsborough elementary schools, and Family Connections, the beneficiary of my Eagle Project.

Here is our website: https://jtstutoring.epizy.com/. We specialize in teaching from the curricula we developed by mixing existing resources (khan academy, ck-12, etc.). The curriculum for each subject aims to give middle school students a more solid foundation for their high-school classes during the summer. We also have more basic curricula tailored towards elementary schoolers. School year tutoring is mostly for classwork/homework help, though we can always continue teaching a curriculum if the tutee would like us too. We ask for donations on the behalf of Family Connections on our website in exchange for the free service we provide.

Parents of scouts: interested in getting tutoring for your K-8 children?

High School age scouts: are you interested in becoming a tutor?

Eagle Projects at Local Airports

Both San Carlos Airport and Half Moon Bay Airport have several potential Eagle scout projects at varying levels of difficulty.
We have potential projects as little as creating a bulletin board or planter boxes to as big as a small amphitheater or dog park.
We are very willing to work with any scout interested in adding to either airport to find the right project for them and help them through the entire process.
I am an Eagle Scout from Troop 390 in San Jose and I am very willing to help any scout on their path to Eagle.

If you have any other questions, just let me know!

Best Regards,
Stephen Meder
