Minor Set back


Good news is all the sprinkler lines we cut during trenching have been repaired.

Well gang we had a minor setback last Saturday with our trailer renovation.  There was a short in the front wall of trailer #1 that caused a minor fire.  The Calera and Alabaster FD responded and it was put out very quickly after it started.  Luckily it happened while someone was there to notice it.

We have accessed the damage and decided to block off the back third of that trailer and just use it for storage and not classroom space.  We will tear out that wall that was burned, the carpet in the section, and the floor that burned.  The wall will be formed back up with approximately an 8' X 6' opening to the outside where we will install a metal roll up door.  The reason for this is that when Upward starts back up again we can roll open the door and use that as a place for the sound equipment, or it could be used to sell concessions, or any other number of things.

Work will start back up this coming Saturday 9/14 at 7:00 AM.  I realize this is football season but we will be finished long before the Tigers or the Tide take the field.  Please come and pitch in to get this project finished up.

Just as a general update below are the priority of things to be done.
Repair fire damage
Install locks
Under-pin
Clean inside (youth servolution!)
Paint outside
Build steps/deck

Thanks,
Brad
