This Saturday we have several exiting milestones to celebrate. Thanks to our amazing full time volunteer plumbers and carpenters, we have both hot and cold running water in North Pacific Hall, and a new wall and new plumbing in the Sweetland cafeteria. The SFAC kitchen staff will be putting the cafeteria through it's paces by providing lunch for Saturday's volunteers.
Another milestone is that we've finished Kellogg! All that is left is carpet installation and a little plumbing. We'll be moving over to North Pacific Hall Saturday and concentrating our efforts on cleaning and prepping the rooms for the arrival of the fabulous SFAC Faculty.
We will also be taking advantage of the last weekend of the city wide clean up to dispose of the last of the garbage on campus. Try as might, we could not salvage all the old electronics, and those will be disposed of appropriately. Thanks to Stan Barge for all the long hours he has put in sorting and fixing piles of out dated computer "stuff?"
Several people have adopted garden beds, but there are still lots of gardening opportunities. Patty McPike and her Brownie Scouts will be digging in the dirt this Saturday. If you have a group who would like to do some gardening, give us a call or just show up, things are sprouting up like crazy.
We will also be working on the Whitmore and Fraser roofs, so experienced roof guys and gals, bring your tool belts. If you don't like heights, Chan Richards has the new North Pacific fire escape stairs framed up and he needs help from the construction crew. Speaking of construction crew, thanks to April Dryden for replacing the rotten exterior wall of Yaw, and much more. She can swing a hammer with the best of them.
If a paint brush is your preferred tool, we also have painting to do in Wurster and several other buildings, as well as many other odd jobs around campus. We're making incredible progress, but we still need your help, so come join us!
