Families are a BIG part of Habitat

Summer is in full swing and we at Habitat AV are getting ready to swing our hammers in September. With September 15th being the tentative start date, the Family Selection committee is busy trying to find our first Habitat Family.  As the family is required to help build their own house, until we find that special family, we will not be starting our project.  (For more information about how to become a Habitat Family, please see our website:  http://www.habitatav.com/)  Meanwhile, the rest of our volunteers are busy creating a build schedule, gathering trades people and materials, and spreading the word. 

There still seems to be so many people who haven't heard that Habitat is here in the Valley.  To help get the word out we are planning a Family Fun Day!  Plan to be at Willow Park in Wolfville on August 29, 2010.  There will be entertainment (talent to be announced later), a BBQ, games for the kids, and lots of information about Habitat for both volunteers and families.  More details will be available soon.  Hope to see you there!
