Boy Scouts — Service with a Smile

The hot Saturday morning didn't seem to bother Boy Scout Troop #557 of Katy, Texas. Scouts, leaders, and even parents worked tirelessly planting roses and bushes at The Abbey at Westminster Plaza as part of our community beautification efforts.

Abbey residents graciously donated the plants to replace those lost by the winter freeze. The Scouts were positive and pleasant as they replaced almost 40 plants throughout the property — and each one earned 2 hours of community service for their efforts.

Parents who accompanied their Scouts were grateful for the opportunity to have their boys give back. Special thanks go to Scout Master Jimmy Gibson and Committee Advancement Chair Jeff Parker for always being willing to help with any challenge asked of them.

Community partnerships like this one are part of what makes The Abbey special. We are proud to be an active part of the broader Houston community, and we're grateful to every volunteer who shares their time and energy with our residents.
