Construction Update:
Good morning;
There are three scheduled work days this week.
Wed 16 March: Meet at the south warehouse at 0900. We will disassemble and retrieve a donated ramp located on Tomer Rd, Moscow. Lunch on our own.
Thurs 17 March: Work starts at 0900 at the Hansen house; concentrating on texturing and priming. Lunch will be provided by Cassandra and Travis (Thank you!).
Sat 19 March: Work starts at 0900 at the Hansen house; continue interior work. Lunch on our own.
Watch for updates, as weather and other factors are variable.

Home Repair Update:
We completed the large ramp in Malden last Wednesday, and are caught up with the urgent ramp requests. We have several jobs coming up, each of which is “non-urgent”.
1. A well built and nearly new ramp in Moscow has been donated to us; we plan to dis-assemble it next Wednesday.
2. A couple in Pullman will need a small ramp within the next few weeks. I plan to inspect next week to see what they need.
Our volunteers are also helping the Lewis Clark Valley Habitat with a family that moved to Clarkston and needs help reconfiguring a ramp from the VA they brought with them.

Shop and donate at the Palouse Habitat Surplus Sale Wednesday-Saturdays 10 AM to 5:00 PM at 304 North Main in Moscow.

The Palouse Habitat office is open Monday-Friday 10:30 to 2:30 PM but may have reduced hours this week so call ahead before visiting.
