Parting
Note
We wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone who participated
in the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition build. This was a rare opportunity
to make such a difference in the lives of a very deserving family. We
were very impressed with the way everyone rallied around this cause to
get the Slaughter family a new house. Without everyone’s participation,
the project would not have been possible.
Again, thanks for your participation. - Montgomery & Rust Inc.
Day 4 - October 20, 2008
The House Takes Shape
After the foundation cured, it seemed like magic how quickly a house emerged.
The exterior walls went up, windows went it, and the roof was started
before the sun went down.
Day 3 - October 19, 2008
Braveheart and Demo Day
With a choir singing in front of the house, Ty and the Montgomery &
Rust team marched down the street followed by a large group of eager workers
pumped up to do the task at hand. Following a heart-felt speech by the
build team, spectators cheered on as the excavator took down the house
in a matter of minutes. Immediately after the dust settled and the debris
was cleared, the construction of the new house began.
Day 1 - October 17, 2008
“Gooood Morning Slaughter Family!”
The Slaughter family was overwhelmed with emotion by the design team’s
arrival early this morning. The family will be departing for their Walt
Disney World vacation for the duration of construction. Now it is time
for Ty and the designers, local builder Montgomery & Rust and hundreds
of volunteers and workers to get to work rebuilding their home.
Our community has really stepped up to the challenge. A big thank you
to everyone who has signed up to volunteer and all the generous donations
and support we have received so far. |
