Come Help Us Build a Shed! Friday, October 4

After some consideration, RPMGA purchased a kit for a 10’ x 8’ wood-framed storage shed and it’s time to get it up. We’re having a bring-your-own-tools party and hope you’ll come to help. (Yes, this counts as volunteer hours.)

There are lots of different kinds of things that need doing. If you can hammer nails, help lift a load, run a drill, or read a level, boy could we use you! If you can use a utility knife, squeeze a caulking gun or help keep things organized, we could really use your help. And your friends. And their friends. We’re starting at 9 a.m. Our goal is to get the walls up and the roof on, so we’ll probably be at it most of the day. Can’t stay all day? Come for a couple hours. Can’t make it early? Come later! We’ll be thrilled to have you for whatever you can contribute.

We’ll have a basic supply of tools on hand, so please come even if you don’t have any. But if you do have some, it would speed the process along if you could bring any of the following (please mark as yours somehow): a hammer, work gloves, safety glasses, sharpened pencils, and a fully-charged cordless drill/driver with a #2 Phillips bit. Less critical but still useful: a utility knife, a tape measure, a 6’ or 8’ step ladder, kneeling pads, a chalk line, a carpenter’s square, a level.

Date/Time: Friday, October 4, 9:00 a.m. till we’re done… or too tired to keep going!

Location: Community Gardens/County Farm just east of the intersection of Hwy 14 and Hwy 51.  Turn in at the Sheriff’s Department, veer left toward the gardens, then turn right to get to the work location.

Note: We’ll need help painting and moving things in as well, so if you can’t come on the 4^th, you can still help. Watch your email for additional notices.
