Another good day with lots done.
Club members did all the work today. Thanks to Douglas Ford, Roy Pritchard, Bill Younger, Steve Lundahl , Jim Irvine and Jeanne Aten - we managed to get all the footings framed, staked and leveled by 3:00 pm. Hopefully tomorrow we can get the rebar in and then the footings are ready for pouring the cement.
