The Battle River Lending Place “Under One Roof” project is entering an exciting new phase as the building moves into the final stages of construction.
Ron Grue has been making great progress preparing the building for completion. The exterior finishing work continued with the installation of the metal lath and completion of the scratch coat and finish coat of parging.
A special thank you to Brian for helping with the parging work and to Len for keeping the mud mixed and ready throughout the process. Their teamwork and dedication continue to help move the project forward.
Additional progress included the installation of the mechanical room metal door and frame, bringing another important detail of the building closer to completion.
With each completed stage, the vision for the future home of the Battle River Lending Place continues to become a reality. We are grateful to the contractors, volunteers, and community members whose hard work and support are helping make this project possible.
The “Under One Roof” project continues to take shape thanks to the support of our contractors, volunteers, donors, and community. As construction continues, donations will help complete and furnish the interior, install solar panels, and bring us one step closer to a fully functional, sustainable home for the Battle River Lending Place.
