Chad's Eagle Scout Project

Hi, my name is Chad Howard and I am collecting funds for my Eagle Scout Project. I am refurbishing SVAA's five pitching machine sheds.

Spring Valley Athletic Association (SVAA) is a non-profit volunteer organization in Dallas TX offering children the opportunity to play recreational sports in the RISD / North Dallas area. SVAA was founded in 1968 and has over 8,000 players participating in a variety of sports leagues. The baseball league plays on a number of RISD fields, and several fields have a shed to house the pitching machines, bases, and other baseball equipment. The sheds are in need of new ramps, additional shelves, hooks, lights, and some basic repairs to make them more functional.

My project includes repairing and improving the five sheds (each at different fields) with the following:

- New ramps

- Repair or replacement of the door locks

- Structural repairs to the doors

- Adding storage devices for the bases (wooden shelves approximately 3 feet high 2 feet deep)

- Adding hooks to hang extension cords and rakes

- Adding interior lights

- Thoroughly cleaning each shed

Thank you in advance for supporting me!
