Work Day 2


Today we split up into two teams. 10 people worked really hard on painting a garage. The rest of us worked moving rocks, building a retaining wall, and cleaning areas to get ready for landscaping. The team worked together so well! It was over 100 degrees out most of the work day and no one complained. Everyone took care of each other & were always ready for the next job. 
Towards the end of the day, some of the crew was working on getting to a stopping point with the bigger retaining wall. Suddenly, the wall began to lean backwards. A few leaders and students jumped behind the wall and pushed it up while the rest of the crew worked quickly, effeciantly, and selflessly to back fill and build up support! The team moved an incredible amount of heavy rock and dirt in an incredibly short period of time. I was honestly amazed at how they worked together and how much they accomplished to keep that wall standing! 
This was a great day of work and unity! We are so proud of our team!
