Today was our first build day, which basically involves the group helping to build affordable homes with a local housing organization like Habitat for Humanity. Today we worked with the Habitat organization in Providence. We helped construct a house that I believe was largely funded by the fundraising performed by the riders the Providence to Seattle Bike & Build route. It was pretty cool to see our fundraising efforts translated into an actual home.
We spent the morning doing whatever tasks the supervisors needed done, which in my case involved wrapping the house with Tyvek. I initially thought there would be a lot of standing around since we had 30 people working on a single home; however, all 30 of us stayed quite busy the entire time. Unfortunately, the rain came forcing us to stop working after lunch. We had a lot of fun despite the inclement weather.
