The new term of service has started at Habitat Charlotte. We have a new crop of Americorps living and serving here and I've been working my tail off learning all the details of new construction as well as having more responsibility and leadership of the worksites. It has been alot of fun, but I end each day crashing into my bed exhausted! But I love that I wake up each morning enthusiastic and excited about the work ahead! The new group of Americorps is really fun. Everyone likes hanging out and getting to know each other. There is always someone around, or something going on.
Next week is the official start of our Blitz Build season, but alot of the projects are already underway. My team had two new starts last Saturday. Our houses are sponsored by the Charlotte Church partners and they've been sending out fantastic groups of volunteers to work together to build these houses. Yesterday we put the trusses on both the houses. They are looking fantastic!
Emma, Isela and Chasity on their first build day!
