  *** THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HELPED ***

Well, definetly a busy day, around 100 volunteers, 2 large rooms and a small painted, about 30 bookcases & a bunch of other stuff painted.  Tiled 2 small bathrooms, hung a bunch of hooks, bulletin boards, curtains, and sundry other objects, adjusted doors, attached more than 500 (maybe even 600) tennis balls to chairs & tables.  Basically redid the coat/knapsack hanging hooks & such for a closet.  Fixed some of the flag brackets in the main hall.  Built 2 kid-mailboxes for 2 KG classes, a poster organizer for the gym teachers.  Gardening--wow!  Check the courtyard off the KG wing, it's back to lovely shape & we trimmed the hedges in front of the blue zone--hopefully we can finish the full length next year--and pulled out lots of weeds from there.   There's more than that, but I can't list it all!

Everyone worked incredibly hard--and let's not forget to the folks who took care of our kids so we could be here--they're definetly part of the project, even if they didn't get to come eat the delicious food!
