Week 9,11 Medbury Rd.

Weather was once again on the side of the Habitat for Humanity crew in Porters Corners this past Saturday.
The main course on the work menu was INSULATION!! I itch just typing the word!!
But a stellar crew from the Warren and Washington County ARC 's jumped in and by noon time, the entire house was insulated and ready for drywall.
The outdoor crew continued with the construction of the storage shed and is nearly complete.

A delicious lunch was provided by the Applebees of Queensbury. Thank you Charlie Brennan (manager) and Applebees

This Saturday we should start installing drywall (sheet rock) and finish the shed.

A big Thank You to our volunteer group from ARC.

See everyone Saturday!!!

Week 8, 11 Medbury Rd.

Knock on wood!!!! Habitat was once AGAIN blessed with some beautiful weather to continue work on our 20th build.
The ambitious and eager crew from BEST BUY was once again on site to contribute their time and effort to our build for Chris, Penny and Matt.
The siding was completed today and the house looks awesome!! This would not have been accomplished without the direction of our siding expert Bill Tretiak from Tretiak Construction of Corinth. Bill, we can't thank you enough.

The storage shed package was delivered and the majority of the shed is up and waiting for completion next weekend.
Front and rear railings were installed on the porches and a fresh coat of paint was applied to all the exterior doors while the weather was so cooperative.
During the week, Reddon Electric came in and completed roughing in of the electrical work.
And it just so happened, Pat (Reddon) stopped in today just in time for lunch!!!
Pat had heard that SUBWAY was once again supplying us with a delicious lunch. And best of all, they sent cookies!!!! Thank you Subway.

Next week we should start insulating the house and work will continue on the storage shed.

Once again a big "THANK YOU" to all our volunteers and the many companies that have donated or discounted their labor and material to help keep our project costs minimal.

11 Medbury Rd. Week 7

Habitat For Humanity continued with great progress on it's latest venture at 11 Medbury Rd.

This weeks featured work crew was from the Best Buy Company. An eager bunch of volunteers were on hand to assist our two contractors on site this week; Bill Tretiak from Tretiak Construction and Pat reddon from Reddon Electric.

Siding work progressed very nicely and should wrap up next weekend. The electrical rough ins continued and should also finish up by next weekend. The Best Buy crew also insulated the basement and assisted with installation of the three exterior doors.

Best Buy had such a good time Saturday, they will return for an encore presentation next Saturday.



Next Saturday's schedule will consist of siding and fascia, continuing with the electrical, painting the exterior doors and trim, installation of the railings on the front and rear porches and beginning to assemble the storage shed out in the yard.



A big thank you goes out to Subway for providing a delicious lunch for all our hard working volunteers.



See you all next Saturday andf let's continue to make Penny, Chris and Matt's dream become a reality!!!!
