From Ali:
Phew, we did it! Super hugs to those of you with the strong backs, tireless
smiles, and fooood (thank you sustenance goddesses). That was a superb
weekend of kinky warriors that really made an awesome effort in taking time
to ensure their dungeon Edges and smOdyssey were all moved. We've got lots
of folks that are now dirty inside AND out. And are actively working to
keep that theme going. THANK YOU to each and every person that shared their
time with us. This will be a continued effort and we need your help in
keeping momentum and energy at a high level: if you cannot come out,
encourage someone whom can!
I've updated the next weeks calendar for times and day, but do be sure to
check or at least call us if there is any doubt. Often we start earlier or
end later than expected.

This weeks tasks:
** The contractor will be in to start creating walls: we're extending the
social area, creating some new doorways, and still have at least two walls
to demo. So bring strong arms with a sledge hammer, 2x4x8 stud material and
your tool belt, or cookies and milk.
** We will also be taking all of the recycling off from the old space and
some last tiny runs of 'stuff' if you have a pick-up truck.
** We will be strapping in new insulation as well and would be more than
THRILLED to have donations in that area!! And we need someone comfy on a
step ladder to get through drop ceiling and pull down fallen insulation.
** We do still need some drop ceiling tile panels cut if you are able to
help with that.
** There is a lot of debris and such that needs to be taken down from above
the hard ceiling areas. Are you comfortable with heights and walking on
rafters?
** We are still seeking dry wall purchasing suggestions. This is an area
that is really going to cost us. Do you know someone that knows someone
that might be able to get a discount!?
** We will begin priming some of the walls and them getting at least the
higher areas painted as we finish building below. Are you familiar with a
paint sprayer? Are you able to tape off windows and framing?
** We have lots and lots and lots and ... (well, you get the point) ...
Access to Building Supplies
The new space is going to need a lot of stuff.
Do you have access to a discount at Home Depot, Lowe's, OSH, or any other
building supply stores?
Can you donate flooring, paint, carpet, and/or other building supplies?
Please let us know how you can help. You can either e-mail me or post to the
group and I will make sure that Ali gets all of your information.
Skilled Labor
We are also still looking for skilled laborers.
We would like to put together a list of people who are skilled laborers, so that we can contact
you when we need your specific help.
So if you are or have access to an electrician, plumber, carpenter, painter, mason, drywall, flooring (I am sure I am forgetting some) could you please either e-mail me or post to the group, so I can add you to the list?
Thank you.
