  1. Eagle Scouts Projects

The City of New Brighton has a long history of working with Scouts hoping to achieve their Eagle Scout rank. In the past, Scout have worked on projects such as:

  • Free Little Libraries
  • Garden planter beds
  • Fishing overlook area
  • The totem pole at Totem Pole Park
  • Pergola at Veterans Park

The City encourages you to work with your Scout Leader to identify a potential need within our community that you could address with your project and then email Charlie Prasek to discuss your ideas! The City is always looking for ways to enhance our community, and we look forward to working with you!
