Owen Pearce of Eagle Scout Troop 658 is beginning the preparations of his upcoming Eagle Scout project at Kempton Park in Rossmoor. Owen will be turning an old sandbox into a drought tolerant succulent garden that will serve as a demonstration garden for the community of Rossmoor.
Owen had to raise $3000 for his project and he scheduled three fundraisers. He had a yard sale at his home and a booth at the Rossmoor Community Festival where he sold some of the succulents that will be in the upcoming succulent garden.
On the April 23, Owen put on a spaghetti fundraiser at his home. The spaghetti fundraiser was made possible by the support of local restaurants and businesses. The following restaurants: Griffins Grill, California Pizza Kitchen, Franco’s Italian Continental Café and Bakery, Aroma Italiano Café, and Macaroni Grill. Vons, Ralphs, Sprouts, and Spaghettini donated gift cards that also helped with the fundraiser.
