Thirteen NYS-fits+ gathered this afternoon to finalize plans for the post-Easter trip to Washington. We decided that four of our members should return to Casa del Pueblo on Thursday to examine more carefully the church site. Daily work plans need to be laid out, and we also need to determine how best to use our financial resources. Other efforts will include: determining what other funds might be available to support this endeavor; needed permits or inspection schedules; discounted sources for building materials; ensuring parking, showering, storage and other on-site arrangements. Contributions for building materials can still be sent for deposit at: Bethany Presbyterian Church, 21 Lyons Avenue, Albany, NY 12204, including on the memo line -- NYS-fits+ Rebuilding Fund. The deadline for receiving funds for this endeavor is Saturday, April 4, in order to be available for use.
There is still time to decide to go. George would rather cook for 20 than 15. We are recommending that, if possible, each person donate $200 towards materials, but we know that some of our group cannot afford that much. Please don't let that stop you from coming.
