TMI senior builds pad site for chapel

TMI senior Dillon Bukowski, right, works on his Eagle Scout project at the Seraphic Sisters of Mercy Chapel. With his crew, he built a new pad site on the order’s property.

Dillon Bukowski, a senior at TMI, received his Eagle Scout rank at an Eagle Board of Review in November at Coker Elementary School.

A member of Troop 515, chartered to St. Thomas Elementary School, Dillon and his crew built a pad site for the Seraphic Sisters at the Divine Mercy Chapel. He had previously completed several other community-service projects for the religious order and wanted to honor the Sisters with his Eagle project.

His sister Corgey, an eighth-grader at TMI volunteered to beautify the new pad site by planting shrubs around it.

Dillon will receive his rank formally during an Eagle Court of Honor ceremony early next year.
