Day 3 updates

Day 3 Updates

Group 1:

Today we helped Ms. A and some of the things that we worked on are the flooring in her kitchen and we put in a band new water heater. We also replaced plumbing in her bathroom.  We got to talk to her and learn about her and her life and how she tries to enjoy life. She really enjoyed our company and getting to know us and loved what we got done with her home. 


Group 2:

Today we built a new wheelchair ramp for Ms. M how gave us peaches. Kennedy and Caroline made a small set of stairs. Stone and Grayson broke some concrete while Kennedy Caroline and Wesley put the boards on the ramp. 


Group 3:

When we arrived at our site today, We split off into two separate teams. One group worked inside on the flooring and the trim of the house and another group worked outside to disassemble the old front steps and begin work on a new set. Will, Jonathan, and Deac worked inside with Brian today, and we learned that they were really skilled with flooring. Everyone had a great chance bond together and learn new strengths and talents. Michael and Jonathan worked outside and took down the front steps, building a new deck in its place. This was our longest and most work intensive day and we’re really proud of the work we put into today, and the initiative that everyone showed. Although we were tired in the van ride back to camp, we’re all excited for our final day of work, and finishing off these homes.


Group 4:

Today we helped out the homeowner by clearing out the trees, weeds, and bushes from around her house so that her house could get sprayed for termites. We had to get loppers and big scissors to remove the weeds from around the house and we mowed the tall grass behind her house. Isaiah and Jackson went on a separate site to install two doors and then they met up and helped us out midway through. We didn’t talk much to the homeowner but we still learned a lot about her and her life. 


Group 5: Today we help a lady fix her back pouch cause it was held up by one 4x4 and it was rotting out so Jace, Samuel, and Cassidy cut the wood to help stabilize the porch. While this was happing Sam and Rachel help remove everything in the bathroom to put a new toilet and flooring in. When all of that was done; Hannah, Rachel, Abby were helping trim the bushes on the outside after we all came together to put all those branches and leaves in a trash bag to get rid of.
