Greenland approves Eagle Scout dugouts at Mahoney Field
Summary
The Board of Selectmen approved Madigan Murdoch’s Eagle Scout project to build two softball dugouts at Mahoney Field; staff will assist with permitting and the troop will source materials and fundraise for remaining costs.
Madigan Murdoch, a life scout with Troop 164, presented plans to build two softball dugouts at Mahoney Field as an Eagle Scout project. Murdoch said the design follows dugouts built at Castro Field, that materials would be sourced through local businesses, and that troop fundraising would cover any remaining costs. The board complimented the presentation and approved the project.
Board members confirmed that in past years Eagle Scout projects have sometimes been granted permit waivers and staff indicated the town administrator or staff would assist Murdoch with permitting and next steps. After a motion to approve the project was moved and seconded, the board voted in favor.
Next steps: town staff will work with Murdoch and troop volunteers on permitting and scheduling; the project timeline discussed anticipates pouring a concrete slab in winter and completing construction after the softball season.
