Rebuilding Together

Rebuilding Together

THANK YOU to all the RELC members who volunteered for this year’s Rebuilding Together project. We had a very successful effort. The homeowner is very happy with the work we did for her. We filled a dumpster with old furniture, construction debris, and other material that had been accumulated over many years. We cleaned the gutters and installed gutter screens. We built new concrete steps for the front and side entrances to her house, removed a dead tree stump, painted her porch floor and four sets of wrought iron hand rails, and several other small projects to clean up her yard.

Many thanks to the following RELC team members:

  • Debbie Andre
  • Doug Andre
  • Lou Curran
  • Pastor Anteneh
  • Ted Mortensen
  • Lee Nesbit
  • Edd Nolen
