Care and Repair Update
Yes, what you’ve all been waiting for, the casualty list from the Care and Repair team…
Actually, no, but now that Mary has joined the group, she has the following to report about the pavilion/gazebo:
Today (Wednesday) the Care and Repair team worked on rebuilding a gazebo. The former structure had been torn down the day before, leaving just the steel support beams and an old brick wall. Today, we built support beams and painted the steel beams. Our handy Ukrainian welder was there to help in the morning, but by afternoon, when his tasks were done, he was more interested in learning English than returning home. Despite some members of the team working on their balancing act on the structure, we left the site with only a few minor bumps, bruises, and scrapes. We plan to finish the gazebo tomorrow and continue work on the playground as well.
