Norwell Eagle Scout Chris Geany Completes Project for Food Pantry

January 21, 2010

NORWELL, MA - Chris Geany, a senior at Norwell High School, recently designed and built doors and framing to help secure the shelves at the Norwell Food Pantry.  Chris, 17, is a member of Norwell Boys Scout troop 66, and he chose the task as his Eagle Scout project.

Chris first raised $500 to cover the cost of materials, and then recruited other scouts to help with the construction work.  He estimates that he and his fellow scouts put in about 180 man-hours to complete the project. 

Once the doors were finished, Chris still had a few hundred dollars left over, which he donated to the Food Pantry.  He then organized a neighborhood food drive to further help stock the pantry's shelves.
