Thanks to a combined effort, Ryan Skadsen’s team completed a new foot bridge over the outlet in the West State Park for his Eagle Scout project. The State Park and the Boys Scouts of America approved the project, which was supported by GPLA. Although it serves as an important addition to Pickerels Path, it’s rapidly becoming a peaceful vista for observing the mesmerizing creek over which it traverses. While technical skills and planning were required, it serves as a milestone for bringing all three organizations together in a joint venture. Congratulations Ryan!
