The City continues to enjoy the fruit of local scouts’ labor that has benefitted our environment and Mission Viejo’s landscape.
Last month, Joseph Gourgy of Boy Scout Troop 659 and Carson Galovan of Troop 768 rallied several volunteers for similar planting efforts on Muirlands Boulevard along the landscape slope area between La Paz Road and Alicia Parkway. The scouts each planted several hundred drought-tolerant plants and 22 trees to help beautify the area.
