vWork
is continuing on the Railroad
Rooms. It is expected that the
RR rooms will be mostly finished
by the end of Summer. If you
have ideas, comments, or need
more info, contact Jamie
Williams at 706-682-5131.
vThe
Schoolhouse is still organizing
and furnishing the office.
We have had some items
donated (THANKS ya’ll!) but
still need help with finding
office-type chairs, shelving,
etc...
Supplies, of the office
type, and plastic storage boxes
(small, medium and large) are
also needed. We would also like
to add a VCR and a wheeled TV
cart
to the building.
vWe
are still in need of kitchen
items: a commercial-type ice
machine, cloth towels, sponges
and rags, mixer, blender, cookie
sheets, paper towel holders,
towel racks,
restaurant-type plastic glasses,
plastic gloves, cleaning
supplies,
First Aid kits,
a supply of regular and
heavy duty extension cords,
tablecloths (both round and
rectangular), shelves installed
over sink, and shelves installed
(maybe track-type?) in the
storage room
vDon’t
forget about the free
coupon-exchange outside the
Library.
It could use some
occasional help with
organization, too.
vCan
you touch-up paint?
Tighten doorknobs?
Move chairs?
Change light bulbs?
Hold a ladder?
Whistle while you work?
vBig
building = regular upkeep. . .
Regular users are quite
good at helping
us keep the building in
generally good shape.
But we must also keep the
grounds and inside neat.
How about a covered dish
(or finger food) gathering about
once a month for this purpose?
As with most things,
the more the merrier.
vMostly,
the MH Schoolhouse Foundation
just needs YOU.
It is through service
that we provide leadership.
Everyone
has talents.
EVERYONE!
