Trusses have arrived

Yesterday, the roof trusses arrived.  These were made in Idaho and trucked directly to Camp Don Harrington.

Happy Scouting!

The Kitchen area has concrete now!  Just a few more things to do and the framers will start.  The Roof Trusses have also arrived.  More photos will be coming soon!

Slab Ready for Pouring

The new Dining Hall is beginning to take shape.  The rough plumbing, water, electrical, and gas are done and the slab is ready to be poured.  With the upcoming cold weather, there may be a day or two delay but we are still ahead of schedule.  Construction meetings are now being held every two weeks at the site so the Council (owners), Builder, and the Architects can discuss timelines, concerns, issues etc.  It's already a great partnership with all involved!  Check out the pictures below!

Happy Scouting!

Concrete and Utilities Update

The footings have been poured and the utilities (plumbing, gas, electricity, drains) are being placed.  We expect the slab to be poured mid next week and then within two days, the framers will come.  Check out the pictures below!

Ready for concrete today

Wow what a week!  The footing trenches have been dug, the rebar is in, the utilities are ready- it's concrete time!  According to the onsite Superintendent, we are ahead of schedule!  In fact, the slab will be poured next week and the framers will be onsite soon after.  The timbers will be delivered from Idaho on May 2.  Take a look at the photo's below!

Almost ready for concrete

The dirt work is now complete and the area is laid out for the contractor to come in on Monday to dig the footing trench. Once that's done, concrete will be poured.  They will also trench for the utilities and get that process started.  Then it's on to pouring the slab!  The slab will be 7inches above the current dirt level!

Check out the latest picture of the soon to be concrete slab!

Dining Hall Dirt Work

The "Dirt Work" has begun and it appears that all the old dirt was taken out and replaced with better soil prior to building.  If you look close, you can see the footprint of the new building.  Big piles of dirt are on the parade ground waiting to be hauled off.  Making progress!!!

Happy Scouting!
