Monarch Waystations
The Mills is thrilled to announce our gardens on the south side of the building have been registered as Monarch Waystations. Monarch Waystations provide milkweeds, nectar plants, and shelter for monarchs throughout their annual cycle of reproduction and migration. Creating and maintaining a Monarch Waystation contributes to monarch conservation and helps assure the continuation of the monarch migration in North America.

Summer 2015
My name is Eryk L. Feala and I started with the Boy Scouts in September 2009 by joining Troop 10 which is chartered in Blaine Christian Church of Arcadia. I have progressed through all the ranks and am now a Life Scout completing my requirements for Eagle Scout. I'm graduating from BCHS this year and have also completed a 2 year course of Public Safety at TBA. I have played football and wrestled for 2 seasons at BCHS. I am currently an officer in the Order of the Arrow, vice chief of Programs; a Boy Scouts Honor Society which helps our BSA camps. This summer I will be working at Cole Canoe base as a Senior Patrol Leader and taking training as a River Ranger and experienced ATV rider which should be great fun. In July I will be going on a BSA high adventure to Juneau, Alaska for 2 weeks, hiking a glacier, fishing for salmon, and doing some service work on our National parks. I chose the Mills Community House Project because I thought it would be a challenging project that had a lot of elements to do for competition. Painting, sanding, installation of newel posts, installation of bench, restoration of cement work, and lots of opportunity to show leadership and responsibility. Also, the Mills Community House is a public building and would make a visible impact on the community and let them know what Boy Scouts are all about; Service to our community. Eryk L. Feala |
A huge "THANK YOU" to Eryk Feala, BSA Troop 10, for refurbishing the front porch of the Mills Community House as his Eagle Scout project. Eryk did a fantastic job coordinating and implementing much needed repairs and painting. Stop by & check it out. If you see Eryk, be sure to tell him "Thanks" for a job well done!
