Good morning, everyone!
After a fast paced week and a half, we wrapped up Reynolds Avenue last weekend with what I hear was an eventful… well, event. I was part of the pavilion group that built the structure that resembled a framed home. I learned a great deal about how to create a modular system that could be prefabricated in the shop and assembled on site. Nolan, Carlos , and I used everything we learned over this semester and put it all into that pavilion. Now, we have the experience to build our own pavilion!
We’re back in the shop this week working on the Gathering Ground Pavilion. This week will be the finalization of construction/assembly of all the walls, wood and metal, and the trellis metal members. We’ll send the metal components off to get powder coated, which takes 3 weeks or so. David also announced to us yesterday that we will most likely start working on site next week! Exciting! We’re in a race against the clock, but I believe we can get a lot done on site. The final stretch is here. The beginning and the end!
