Day 4 of Work

Everyone met at the 6-8 campus as we were going to start laying concrete. However, soon it became apparent that we were overstaffed as we needed to wait for the technical workers to take measurements of the school grounds before we laid the rebar and cement. In the meantime some of us started removing the sand surrounding the soccer field so we could lay the concrete as soon as possible. When we had finished that job, we decided to split the group. Me and a couple of the Bauorden volunteers stayed behind to help out with this task as Jessica and the others went to the 1-5 campus to start pulling weeds and getting that playground ready for the opening day. Later in the day everyone met back up at the 6-8 campus and we started mixing and laying the concrete.

Again, it was a joy that we had a couple of local volunteers wake up early and come out to work. Having these sorts friends in the community really makes all the volunteer work worthwhile.
