Eagle Scout Project at MC

Special thanks to Connor Spence from Troop 329 who recently completed his Eagle Scout project at Meadow Croft! Connor built and erected six bat houses in the wooded area surrounding Meadow Croft. Bats eat insects, including mosquitoes and reduces the need for pesticides. They are nocturnal mammals that help the environment. Thank you Connor and Troop 329 for your donation to Meadow Croft!
