Day Six: Site Work

After breakfast, assignments were given out and we headed out to work.

A dumpster wasn't available to take more debris from yesterday's site, so most of the demolition people are inside the house doing taping and mudding.

Randye, Lisa and Kate are off to Lighthouse after a long wait. Tina is going through files trying to get an accurate count of how many volunteers have passed through the facility. Some of the Minnesota volunteers are out doing construction, others organizing database and folders.

Agnes, Arabella and Betty are visiting homes in the neighborhood and talking with residents. Listening, information-gathering and processing the huge number of volunteer requests is a huge job. It might not seem as physically challenging as demolition and construction but its just as vital...
