On Nov. 13, 2007, our new members had a meeting. We discussed non-traditional designs for housing, such as silos, shipping containers, etc. Our training will consist of field trips to architectural college and other means to study building plans. We will start with an outlet for sales of recycled home fixtures ie. sinks, stoves, cabinets,… (donation)
On Dec. 21, 2007, we had our next meeting and viewed a DVD about building silo homes and other non-traditional construction. This meeting was held at Sue Cox’s home.
January 2008: We have discussed how many recycled home fixtures would be donated and where to store them. Lack of a building is our main concern.
February 2008: Our discussion is to concentrate on acquiring a community center building to further the Habitat actions. The community center would involve several activities benefiting not only Habitat.
