"Sabout" Time ...A couple of work day pics

I guess I only missed a month. Last post was in July and it's only September!

Total of 69 people came on work day to clean, dig, mix, feed, eat, pour, cut, rake, shovel, carry, organize, wash, clear, swim, brush, burn and did I mention eat? Great weather, fellowship, food, jobs and great people all added up on a beautiful September day.
We finished the paver stones on the picnic shelter floor, then built a set of stairs and a ramp up to the floor level! PLEASE keep all motorized vehicles on the roads!

The picnic shelter is 24 X 60 feet has a paver stone floor, low wattage flourescent lights wired in for connection to your generator or inverter.

The Picnic shelter has a retractable roof (plastic tarp) that is hung straight up and down off the ridge line during the winters to let more light in (and shed the snow)

We laid another row of large pavers down the side of the lodge to join the front to back porch. We aim to encourage less sand dragged into the Lodge!

We washed windows, vacuumed, swept and gave the trailer a thorough cleaning. We did NOT get time to connect the wood stove properly in the trailer so PLEASE - Do Not Use the wood stove until that job gets completed.

We ate again!

We prepared the drains, forms and sump, mixed cement and poured a slab for a new "Changing House"

69 volunteers came and all (or most) managed to smile while numerous cameras clicked away.

We cleared forest fire material and chopped most of it into 12 inch lengths and stacked it in the woodshed. (The other 80 wheelbarrow loads were burnt. )

We cleared all the way between the old boatshed and the Chapel.

We prepared a place and built a bench to sit, relax and enjoy the view of God's creation.

We started taking bookings for 2010. (Ticket prices are more valuable but less costly than the Olympics)

THANKS to all who came and helped on the 2009 Fall Work Day!
