Most of the team arrived late last night and took off early this morning for locations in Jamestown and Longmont. To get to the location in Jamestown we drove up into the foothills and saw much devastation. Our Jamestown project involved hauling away debris and sand from the home site which had been overrun by the river as well as clearing out the home so reconstruction could occur.
In Longmont we prepped basement walls and put up drywall for a family with four children. The team moved quickly and efficiently through several different areas on the lower level. One of the boys serenaded us with various musical instruments while we worked, which was quite fun!
Here are a few pictures of our work today and some of the devastation we saw.
