I fixed up a recreation area at the local middle school. I put in a flower bed, planted Crepe Myrtles along the borders of the area, and sowed grass on the field. I had a total of around 150 hours on the whole thing, from planning to completion.

Congrats to you and the people that showed you how to be the type of person you are today.
As far as how much work it was, I believe it. It would have taken me much longer, almost always, the right thing to do is the harder thing.

Who pays the bill?
I was in boyscouts many years ago but never hear much about the scouts anymore.

What bill? As far as my project goes, all the money was donated from local civic organizations and businesses, and in return, they all receive recognition for helping out.

Thats what I was asking. I didn't know if you recieved money up front from the Scouts or if you had to go out and hustle up donations or if there was a pool of donations to pull from. Just curious because I don't see much of stuff like this in our area.

Most of the other boys in the troop who got Eagle did fundraisers. I decided to do donations because it made the project go a lot faster and was easier not to have to spend extra time on planning the fundraiser, and I could spend more time on the project itself.
