Progress Update #10
Thursday, August 20th, 2009
The crew has been hard at work setting beams and framing walls. On Wednesday, they will be bringing in a crane to set the rest of the beams for the floor. Doug Walker and crew have been working on nailing 425 joist hangers in preparation for the beams. The building is starting to take shape with the continued framing of the basement exterior walls.
This is the last week of camp for the summer at Firwood and will mark the last time that campers use the Longhouse for meals [Guest Groups in the fall will continue to use the facility]. Share a favorite memory of the Longhouse on Facebook.

Progress Update #8
Thursday, August 13th, 2009
The crew has started the framing stage of the Centerhouse. They have started with one of the side walls in the basement as well as the glue-lams in the upper section. The support beams require nailing in lots of joist hangers which Doug Walker and his two assistants, Robb Watson and Landon Block, were helping to secure today. Check out the video and photo gallery below.

Progress Update #6
Tuesday, July 7th, 2009
With the footings finished, the crew has been working on forming up the walls of the building the past couple of days. The plan is to hopefully start pouring concrete in the forms early to mid next week. It is exciting to start seeing some elevation in the site.

Forms
Monday, June 15th, 2009
Today the crew starting building the forms for the foundation for the basement walls. They also continued excavating near the parking lot and kitchen corner of the building. If the forms keep going along as planned, hopefully we will be able to start pouring concrete early next week.

Progress Update #2
Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009
This past week has brought a flurry of action as the services [water, sewer and power] have been accessed to connect to the building site. This has meant digging up the road and regrading it. We should have word that we received our building permit either today or tomorrow. All of the financing is in place, so we are all geared up for the building stage of the project. The next step is to start excavating for the foundation. Thank you for all your prayers and support so far, keep them up as we continue on!
