Examples of past Scout projects
Examples of scout projects benefitting Memoral Hermann Hospital: Donated more than 1,100 DVDs, with 20 individual DVD players, headsets and headset splitters, so multiple people can watch and listen to the movies together, in honor of the scout’s late father; designed and constructed two picnic tables and benches that were installed outside the doctors’ lounge at Memorial Hermann Katy Hospital.
