Collin Gallagher, affiliated with St. Veronica Troop 135, completed his Eagle Scout Service Project at the Clermont County Airport. The project consisted of improving the airport viewing area by adding park benches, erecting a jungle gym, and providing landscaping to the area.
Collin’s goal in his Eagle Scout Service Project was to create a social gathering point for local residents. He says, “These improvements will encourage families and their children to come to the airport and enjoy aviation. The children will be able to play on the jungle gym while the parents can relax and watch airplanes. Maybe some of these youth will find a career in aviation someday.”
Collin is a sophomore at Archbishop Moeller High School in Cincinnati and actively participates in the school band, Mock Trial, and the Historical Wargaming Club. He is an active member of Troop 135 and a member of The Order of the Arrow, Scouting’s National Honor Society. Collin plans on finishing his Eagle Scout rank and continuing working with other scouts.
Airport patrons and the general public are invited to utilize the airport viewing area on Taylor Road where you can enjoy the up-close sights and sounds of general aviation.
