Good idea for a take action project: Ryan approached an inner-city school about resurfacing &amp; painting games on the playground. Loving the idea, the principal said he wished someone would someday paint a US map to inspire students to learn their geography. Ryan found a template online, about $ 200, and our troop/friends spent two weekends on the project (about 180 man-hours, total). Free &amp; for-purchase templates are also available for world maps, basketball courts, hopscotch &amp; 4-square.
