Welcome back!!!

Can you believe it? Summer's over and we are back to Channing Hall for our 5th year! We have some great projects coming up for our 5th year to celebrate our accomplishments. Speaking of which; how about the new addition and new field! The field is seeded, so now we just wait for mother nature to bring out the green!The playing field looks GIGANTIC!
The expansion is also 2 weeks ahead of schedule and should be completed by the first week of September. Hooray!The portables will be going away soon and we will be adding 9 new parking spaces there instead!

We're getting a great start to the 5th year already!

Let's keep it up!

Taking shape

Dust is flying, nails are shooting, men are hammering! The expansion is in full force!
All's a whirlwind of activity at Channing Hall working towards completing this as close as possible to school start.
The rooms are being wired. The windows are in.

Even the new field is progressing. The fence is down and the land is about leveled ready for the sprinkler system. Next will be the hydro-seed, fencing and then the patient wait for the seeds of all our planning and hard work to show.

Expansion update

The floor is in. The face is gone! GO! GO! GO!

Construction update

Footers are in. Back-fill is in. Let's hope the construction accelerates significantly next week.

Keep tuned in.

Work has started!

Here's a great sign! Digging of the foundation has begun. We expect it to ramp up significantly soon! Keep posted.

This money will all go back to the school to help with computer needs.
