TaDaaaaaa

Well, friends...here it is!

Of the energy, enthusiasm, friendships made and rekindled and the wowness factor of participating in this fantastic project, we can only say once again, how grateful everyone at LBC is for this gift of community.

There are only a few touchups remaining. The flooring and baseboards will be completed when the concrete floor is dry; the steps to the deck will be added soon.

Remember to come out to "OOOOOH" and "AHHHHH" on Saturday June 26th for our Open House, from 1-4PM.

Rain Delay (Just Like Baseball!)

On Day 1, we experienced a deluge of rain, at the wrong time. The structure was not fully enclosed during the rain and a substantial amount of water ended up on the basement floor. While the volunteer crew was able to mop up most of the water, the concrete floor is extremely damp. Professional opinions have informed us of the high possibility of damage to any subfloor and flooring if they are installed on the damp concrete. Rather than rush to install flooring that may be ruined due to the moisture, a decision has been made to allow the basement to fully dry over the next 5-7 days and delay the installation of the flooring.

As a result the open house planned for this Sunday has been POSTPONED until SATURDAY, JUNE 26 FROM 1:00 – 4:00 PM with a dedication ceremony at 3:00.

The cabin is fully enclosed (see the pics below) and this extra time will allow for a fully dry floor for our flooring.

We're eager and waiting for the 7AM start. Good morning and good luck to all! This is going to be SUCH FUN!!

Thursday 7 AM - Rain or Shine - Part 2

The rain currently forecasted for Thursday has the potential to create some challenges which may result in changes to the work schedule. If you are involved with the build itself, please monitor your email and this website from now until the Saturday June 5, especially from now until Thursday morning.

There is a possibility that work you've been scheduled for has already been completed or there is a delay in your start time so we ask for your understanding and flexibility.

We will endeavour to provide the best information we have as soon as we have it.

Drum Roll Please...# 2

Fundraising total now sits at $75,934. WAHOOOOO!

Thursday 7 AM - Rain or Shine

The contingency plan has been established and the build will start on Thursday at 7AM regardless of the weather. There may be slight changes depending upon the magnitude of the rain (It will be sunny and warm....promise!) but the showers will hold off until work is done for the day...and yes, you can quote that you heard it here first!

And...away we go!
