TOOL TRAINING

Each month we have been getting together to learn about the tools we will be using and also to learn how to safely use them. First we learned about non-power hand tools and then we moved on to the power tools. We started with saws. It's been fun and interesting lerning to use the different saws. We have worked with the circular saw, chop saw (miter saw) and the table saw. Next month we will continue working with the saws, and we will learn about the drills as well. Lot's of real life skills are being developed. Can't wait until we get to put our learning to actula use. This year we are going to build dog houses after we learn to use all the tools. Looking forward to it!































GETTING TO KNOW EACH OTHER

Each time we get together we spend some time getting to know each other. We do some activities that help us learn about each other, and also some things that help us learn to wrok together as a team. We have a lot of fun. It's a good thing to really get to know each other and work together. Sometimes we don't coordinate so well, but we still have a good time.
















LOTS GOING ON

I have to apologize for being behind in my updates. Things have been crazy. We have a great group of kids going on our Mission trip this year. We have been meeting with them monthly and we have begun tool training. We have also been working the events and activities at the church to clock our community service hours. The kids have been fantastic. The last event we worked was the Candle Light Dinner at St. Mary. The kids did an amazing job. Everyone who attended had a wonderful night and we heard nothing but positive compliments about the night. So proud of the kids and the night. Thank you to everyone!!!
