Construction Update

Week of October 19, 2009

Men of Gamma, Rain, Rain go away! This years quick change to fall has not been easy on us at Gamma. Due to the unseasonably cool temperatures in early October and above average rainfall our work schedule has suffered some minor setbacks. You will see in this weeks update that a majority of the work has involved excavation and foundation work, which of course requires a relatively dry period. However, now that we have received a string of good autumn days, work is back underway and the footings are in! There is not a lot happening inside since we are still awaiting approval of our building permit and unfortunately, it may take another few weeks to finalize those details. However, we will continue to move forward While we wait out these delays and weather, I would like to ask for your help researching a little of our history. We are undertaking a project to compile a list of our past presidents. We need your help in completing such a large task. We currently have all of the recent presidents 1997-2009 but we need help with the rest. If you know of a name that we can add to our list, please email the name, year, and hometown to me at [email protected] or post the name on our facebook page wall. We will compiling a whole host of historical documents to put on display and to properly store in the new house. Some of the more interesting pieces we have collected are the financial report from 1929 showing all of the construction cost, old pledge books, photographs, initial plans for the 1969 addition, original plans to the house and addition, newspaper articles from our dedication, and a 1930 Illio showing our first year with the new house. We will take anything you have, including photocopies. Please let me know if you can help rebuild our history. All the Best,
