Wrapping Up Parish Hall

The “church year” is now in full swing and I hear the clamor of eager room-users at my door. Danceaway would love to move back into its real home…..Parish Hall. Starr King needs to hold its Annual Kick-Off Potluck….in Parish Hall. Our congregation plans to hold the first in a series of Dinner Potlucks….in Parish Hall. Our very patient Library Committee is “chomping at the bit” wanting to get back into the book & movie lending business. Congregational Meetings, Family Fun Nights, Adult RE, Toastmasters, Program Council, Board Meetings. All of these are scheduled for Parish Hall later this month, culminating with the USSB Services Auction November 8th. It looks like we better wrap this project up soon.

And that’s exactly what we plan to do.

The walls are painted. The floor is refinished. The bathrooms are almost complete. Stone thresholds will be installed in all the exterior doorways to the portico later this week. The Library cabinets should be arriving at the end of this week and could be complete as soon as Oct 19. The new music library is complete and ready to be stocked with choir sheet music. New door hardware & locksets are being installed everyday. The wonderful, Spanish Style hanging light fixtures for Parish Hall will arrive on Oct 8 and should be in place in time for our Congregational Potluck. The new stage curtain could be in place by that time as well. The fabulous new audio-visual system will be operational by Oct 24, in time for Danceaway’s return. I’ll talk more about this A/V system in my next blog. All I’ll say now is that you don’t want to miss Chuck Wolfe’s first movie night. It will definitely “knock your socks off”.
