Work was done in five different homes. The Spicer home was blessed on Thursday with a few punch list items still to be completed. Foundation work continued at the Noble and Back house with cement and ground leveling. At the Herald home flooring, trim, vanities and locksets were installed. The Neace home had drywall and a deck installed. The Denise Joseph house had the final coat of paint.

On Thursday a group of students helped organize and clean up the camp in preparation for closing on Friday.
