Boy Scouts Help With Buckthorn Removal

On August 15, a group of Boy Scouts lead by Kyle Stevens completed a service project at Sugar Creek.  In order to attain the rank of Eagle, scouts must complete a service project in the community.  Many projects involve clean-up of natural areas or buckthorn removal.  Kyle and crew worked on the buckthorn around the driving range.

Scouts cut and stacked buckthorn around the driving range

They also collected 100's of golf balls!

We now have lots of piles like this of dead buckthorn

Good work, Kyle.
