BRINGING IN FILL (ROUND ONE)
August 27 & 28, 2008
| Since the building site is in the flood plain, fill must be brought in to bring the floor of the groomer garage up to the proper elevation. This is the first round of filling. More will be needed once the walls are poured. | |

|
The tractors of Gene Knox and Louise
Stickney are ready to begin leveling the fill as it is delivered.
Bob Stickney gets ready to set up his theodolite to check levels. |

The supervisors! It's a tough job, but somebody's got to do it! |

By mid-day of the second day of the filling operation, levels around the footer trenches were considerably higher ... |
|
 |
|
... and the planking for making the
footer forms was delivered. |
|
 |
|
The end of day two of bringing in fill
... |
|
 |
|
... and it's time to load up the tractors
and head home. Thanks go to Rob Cameron for letting the Club use
his trailer to haul the tractors back and forth! |
