Fall
General Work Group
October
23 - 24, 2009
In
the rush of the many things we have to do, it can be a lot of fun to
get away and do something different. The Fall General Work Group is a
great way to do something different. You will be able to see
friends from other OPC congregations. You will help maintain
and improve the Machen Retreat and Conference Center facilities.
You will have time to be out in God's glorious creation.
This
year, there are several projects:
- Work
on the path down to the Summer Cabins
- Cleaning
and staining of the deck
- Finish
the leveling and preparation of the tent sites
- Hanging
of a white board and cork board in the dining hall
- Finish
the work with the plastic rivets
- Depending
on budget and etc, the development of the sand volleyball court
- paint
baseboard
- grind
stumps
- install
shelves
- finish
any work at barbecue pits
- clean
old labels off cabinet doors
- reorganize
storage upstairs
As
you can see, there is a lot to do.
You
will need to bring bed linens, work clothes, your desired snacks,
hand tools ( shovels, bow saws, picks and hoes) and plenty of energy.
If you
are
coming please fill in the online registration form since we need to
know how many to cook food for.
