> Sears Hardware on Washington Avenue in Bergenfield is having a "friends and
> family night" this Saturday evening, November 12th between 6 and 9 pm. The
> manager has generously offered me the opportunity to promote my Eagle Scout
> project and Scouting in his store during that time.
> 
> 
> The Eagle Project involves the construction and testing of deployable 2
> meter J-Pole antennas for the Red Cross of Northern New Jersey.  These
> antennas will be used in Red Cross shelters, offices, and other locations
> during emergencies. Many of the parts needed for these antennas are copper
> plumbing parts and are available in the Sears Hardware store. I am also
> planning to make roll-up J-Pole antennas my from TV twinlead.  If you have
> some of this or some old lengths of coaxial cable, please bring that by, as
> it would help complete the project.
> 
> If you have some free time on Saturday evening, please consider dropping by
> the store and purchasing a small antenna component for donation.  I will
> have a list and a handout at the entrance to help guide shoppers.
> 
> 
> 
> Also, please forward this e-mail to your friends, family members and any
> club email lists and invite them to come by if they have the time.
> 
> 
> 
> Since we are also planning to promote Scouting at an information table in
> the store, it would be great to have some other Scouts available to talk
> with young people and their parents.  I will arrive at the store about 5
> pm.  If you can assist, please dress in full uniform.
> 
> 
> 
> If you have any questions, please give me a call at 201-314-5410. Thanks in
> advance for your help.
