The Playhouse Grows




Thanks to the last group that came, we now have railing and stairs built for the playhouse. We are continuing to work on it, and the progress, although slow, is still moving in the correct direction. This was/is Casey’s dream for the kids out here at Santo Tomas. He fundraised the money needed, and has been working on it ever since.
We have tried to make it as local as possible by using things such as their style of railing (a thin, cut up, tree), the roofing will be thatched, etc… Our goal is to have this be a safe and fun environment for the kids out here, without being too far fetched from what we live with.
We have currently run out of wood for the second floor, but will go purchase some in the coming weeks. Due to the daily schedule being so full, time allotted for this project is random, thus it has taken some time. It has been a pleasure having the groups come down and assisting with the construction. Thanks guys!
