We are so happy that this project is moving forward! Neel Bhardwaj, a rising junior at Sleepy Hollow High School, is working diligently to plan the preservation and beautification of the WWI Monument on Beekman Avenue for his Eagle Scout project! He has received a great deal of support, but needs a bit more. If you want to help, here is the link to his GoFundMe:

We are helping with an exciting project. Did you know that there was a WWI monument next to the Morse School playground on Beekman Avenue? This monument needed some love and that came the person of Neel Bhardwaj, a rising junior at Sleepy Hollow High School. Neel is planning to make the preservation and beautification of this monument his Eagle Scout project! If you want to help, here is the link to his GoFundMe:
