HOLLIDAYSBURG, Pa. (WTAJ) — Hollidaysburg residents are getting a new greeting sign, all thanks to a local Boy Scout.

Carson McCloskey of Troop 31 in Duncansville is working on an Eagle Scout project to create a "Welcome to Hollidaysburg" sign heading into the borough on Route 36 next to the Blair Regional YMCA. McCloskey started the project back in December, making phone calls to different contractors and local agencies to help with the design.

"It's a very intricate project with a lot of odds and ends and little pieces like sign permits, building permits, property permits. I've had to work with both the Frenchtown Township and the Hollidaysburg borough to figure out whose property it is on," McCloskey said. "Working all that out has been, it's been a long process."
