The volleyball court

Several years ago Jake kindly allowed the church to construct a volleyball court on his property right beside the church. The young people faced frustrations with the fact that they weren't always able to use it if there had been a lot of rain. Also it was only big enough for 1 net, which was frustrating at times with the population explosion of youth around here. Anyway the young guys got permission and started to cut down trees and run drainage pipes. They took trips with trailers and brought in river rock and generally worked hard. It took participation from more mature men, though, to finally get the job done. Hats off to young and old who participated and made it happen!
those who watched the cement truck as hard as they could...
 
 
..those who got their boots dirty and backs sore...
 


...Those who watched diligently...


 
and brought food for the hard working guys...
 
and baked for fundraisers which brought in about $1,500.00..

We all worked together, and that is half the fun right there  :)
