Cabin Updates
Merry Christmas All
Two cabins have four framed walls. Adam and Karen Wilson, Kevin Newman and I along with our scout support staff are planning on being at camp again tomorrow 8:30 AM. We are planning on finishing the roofing and walls tomorrow if at all possible.
If we have more help, we can get some more pads poured and prepped and we can continue the building process.
We have purchased 10 doors and were able to upgrade all of the windows to Pella double paned, all larger than theWe have purchased 10 doors and were able to upgrade all of the windows to Pella double paned, all larger than theoriginal $58.00 single pane shed windows we were looking at, and each brand new Pella window cost $54.00 each(we save $16.00 per cabin, but lumber cost are still taking care of neutralizing that savings). So on the good news, there will be a little more light and breeze in the cabins. All of these materials are at camp along with all the metal for the roofing.
We will order lumber for the cabins as we get pads ready for construction. In this way, we can take advantage if lumber costs go down as projected and we do not have expensive materials just laying around camp in the elements.
And remember, January camping is only a month away...
Thank you and Happy Holidays!
