Hard hat Update
June 11, 2008

The window frames for the Music Practice Room are in.

Greetings
To me, the visible areas seem rather quiet, except for the electrical trenching, and the trailers going tomorrow. There are a lot of things we won’t know until the trailers haulers arrive, things like , “Will we have to move the dumpsters to get them out?”

Out of Sight
Far away in Michigan, the sedum for our roof is developing. The species are: “Cilacombianum,” "reflexum 'Spurium Album Superbum,'” “Spurium ‘Green Mantle,’” “Spurium ‘Tricolor,’” “Florifellum ‘Weihenstephanner Gold,’” “rupestra ‘Angelina,’” “Spurium ‘Fuldaglut,’” “Spurium ‘John Creech’” and “Stefco”.

The Upper Crossing floor is poured, the classroom hallway is painted, trim work is proceeding down the hall, and into the Auditorium. The incremental changes are not as large as before, but occasionally there is a detail that catches the eye.

Volunteers

Thursday Morning Garden Crew Please join the Gardening Crew that meets every dry Thursday morning between 9 and 11 a.m. Come dressed for work. Bring gardening tools if you have any. The Front Desk Volunteer will direct you to where the crew is working. Questions? Contact Nancy at nragland@charter.net.

Woodworkers Needed
If you are interested in doing some woodworking, and you haven’t yet asked to be put on the roster, please contact Rae Gilbertson rg@mailbag.com. .

Give and Take

  • Please bring in any sprinklers you can part with. This summer we will have a lot of lawn to get established.
  • Feel free to take any of the deck wood that is piled on the lawn, as well as any of the trim that is inside the snow fence.
  • We still need to use the stone, so that is not available.

Thanks to our deck demolshers
John Dally, Ann Vetter,
Steve Johnson, Charles Thomas, Tom Miskelly, Gail Bliss, Anne Vetter, John Dally and Jay Roberts.

These South steps have a gentle curve which is very nice. They will be red.
