Greetings friends!  If you don’t mind a few sore muscles, getting your hands dirty or a little sweat, we could use your help at our construction sites.  I can promise you some fun and laughter too.  No experience is required.  Just bring your enthusiasm and expect to have a great day.  Take a look at the work schedule for each site below and let me know what job you’re interested in as soon as possible.  Requests for participation are accepted on a first come, first serve basis.  Keep in mind that more jobs will be posted weekly, so continue to check this site for updates.  Thanks so much for your support.
