A core group of 9 “Regulars” contributed over 3,200 hours (46%) on Habitat build sites last year.
Regular volunteers bring a wide variety of skills and knowledge to our build sites. They also increase our capacity to lead other volunteers, including corporate groups and team builds.
This year’s Regulars include: Al Carriere (652), Lanny Massey (595), Ken Wickstrom (404), Ron Robinson (401), Peter Kugler (356), Jerry Long (277), Hal Bert (194), Grace Goyena (187), and Bryan Pleger (159). That is an average of 358 hours each!
This deck was deteriorated and a major safety risk when Frances Farley applied to the A Brush With Kindness program. Now that it is repaired and refinished it will provide a safe secondary exit in case of emergency and a nice place to escape the rain.
