Matt Samarko, a scout with Troop 59, presented an Eagle Scout project to install consistent metal signs and wayfinding at the borough's sports fields, including a QR code linking to an online map.
Samarko described mockups, materials (white metal signs with black lettering), where signs would be installed (some on fences, some on posts), and coordination with borough recreation staff and ARC. Council members said the project was a good idea, discussed sign placement and material constraints (no backlit signs), and confirmed the project could proceed with staff coordination; council members indicated no formal vote was necessary.
Samarko said the work will be organized into volunteer teams that he will train and lead, and he will coordinate with Councilman O'Connell and borough staff on logistics and approvals.
The council expressed support and offered good luck for Samarko's project and Eagle Scout application.
