Volunteer(s): Murray Saul
Skill Set: Have sheet sander, able to sand. No belt sanders please...
Notes:
Murray wanted to improve look of church entrance (which also included painting trim, and painting hand-rails). He asked and got permission from property facilitator to start work. So far he has averaged work on doors Monday to Friday from 9:00 am to 11:15 am and 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm. Murray started in summer due to good weather, but is returning from summer vacation to work in September. Although he will continue to work on project, it needs to be finished before weather turns cold - volunteers would be greatly appreciated! Sandpapering is the task required. Should coordinate to avoid sanding when finish is drying on door.
If interested, please contact the property facilitator...
