Habitat news for September 10, 2009 Dedication date announced! (Call for volunteers) We had a weekend off last Saturday – Labor Day Weekend, but the Mt. Vintage vintage volunteers came in on Wednesday (Sep 9th), and installed much of the interior trim. Even a holiday can’t stop those fellows! They have been key players for our Tammy Harper house. Thanks goes out to them, and to their wives who let (encourage?, shove?) them out, leaving retirement and golf one day a week for Habitat! Dedication of House Number 11 (Harper Family) to be Sunday, October 4th, 2009, at 2pm. Let’s all come out for the celebration and to thank all the sponsors, donors, volunteers and other community-minded folks that have made our 11th ‘build’ a success! More details soon. Final preparation is underway! In the meantime, we are painting, painting, painting: True North and crew will be out this Saturday – why not join them and help get the final touches done so cabinets and carpet can go in soon? Did you know that a Habitat family must be in a qualified income bracket (approx 30% of median income) to qualify to buy a Habitat home? In this way, Habitat ensures that needy families, who might otherwise not qualify for their own home, benefit from community efforts to produce the home (not to mention their own sweat equity, which depends on the house size, and they pay most of their own closing costs!). A home earned is a home deserved! Will we see you Saturday? (1109 Austin, near North Augusta Middle School – around 8am ‘til about noon, with LUNCH!) We will be painting, painting, painting…
Y’ALL COME, HEAR?
