Message About The Vann Cabin From President Mike Burton

We had a great morning S Pretty weather and good spirits at the cabin.  FCCI workers did a great job of cleaning up the area behind the cabin under the supervision of Michael Long, Assistant Warden. I was impressed with the alacrity of the workers as they put all bricks on palettes and wrapped them in plastic.  All lumber was put on a trailer and moved to dry storage and rotten lumber was disposed of. Board members, Pete Mathis, Steve Craw, Ann Montgomery, Chris Lemons, Billy Wayne Abernathy made the work go smooth by opening up the storage area and the cabin area and assisting workers to load and store wood. Thanks. Terry Lemons was critical as he backed the trailer into the places where it could be most effectively used.We are ready for the KSU project as soon as we can move the bricks out of the  cabin yard to a storage area. Hope we can do that before the coming rains. Mike

Work Day

It is nasty today but the prognosticators predict dry weather for the next two says, so Michael Long and I are scheduling a workday Saturday, March 7 at 8:00 AM. Michael will have a number of workers and a trailer full of pallets. 

Pete and Diana are working on getting the bricks and lumber stored temporarily at the old lumber yard.

Looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible there with your brogans and work gloves so that we can have the cabin yard neat and clean by noon for the community and our KSU compatriots.

Rest during the rain so you will be froggy Saturday.
