Today the plumbers will be here to tear up more concrete to get to the heart of the problem. I appreciate the two local chapters and three individuals who have already given $100 each to help cover the cost of these repairs. I must also give a shout out to Barry Chavis, who after spending the whole week working at the Fall Senior Camp, stopped by the Center yesterday to remove floor cabinets away from the wall in the storage room so the plumbers can get to the concrete there where the pipes are buried. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> We are at the halfway point in raising funds and I have found that sometimes those who have the least give the most. I want to thank you for your sacrifice so that the Federation Center can resume normal operations soon and water can be restored.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>David Houck<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Executive Director<o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
