*AN UPDATE ON SARGEANT KECK’S HOUSE FROM BOB WARD*

*Captain Jim – The sediment controls are going in now and we will begin the excavation the end of this week. June 15-17 is the “Build Brigade” weekend where we will spend 3 days going from slab to a completely dried in house. Homes For Our Troops (HFOT) tell me they will do multiple press releases and arrange for some type of ceremony that weekend for the public. August 4th will be the “volunteer day” where unskilled labor will be needed for laying the sod, landscaping, etc. Bob*
