Boy Scout Troop 247 and Andrew Oles Reef Ball Construction Pictorial
The grasses that once provided shelter for marine life in the Chesapeake Bay have been severely depleted by pollution. The purpose of this project is to construct “low-pro” concrete reef balls that will be used by the natural inhabitants of the Chesapeake Bay as a source of shelter and a safe breeding area. Each reef ball weighs approximately 135 pounds.
