Weekly Update

Posted by Daniel Cox in Updates

The basement is looking really good. We’ve finished the study room. All thats left is putting carpet in, which will be a dark green. We also have painted the downstairs lounge Dark blue and Cream. We have a new-to-us stove plugged into the wall, so every now and then you can smell food. That is just the first addition to the kitchen, which will start hopefully in 2 weeks.

Pumpkin sales kick off today at noon! Jonathan McReynolds and myself went down to Grafton IL this weekend to pick up 35 pumpkins. 15 are carved, the rest are being sold uncarved, or carve yourself. Its going to be really cold this week.

Saturday Night we had a mixer with Chi Omega. There was plenty of fun to go around. All the actives and pledges that went dressed in costume. Awards for costumes were given out at the end of the mixer, after a round of Limbo and Bobbing for apples. The Chi Omega’s had food already prepared, which was really good! 

Until next week,

We  have started remodeling the house. This weekend we painted the psych lab, which used to be used for storage and was white walls and really nasty. We painted it burgandy and beige. It looks really good, There are pictures on the photo’s tab.

    The room is going to be used as study room with computers and everything, and maybe down the road a house mom room.We’re also working on a dance room, re-doing the storage room beside the chapter room, taking all the shelving out and painting it black and building black lights and bar like james made. its gonna look really good when its done.

      Then after that we finally have the kitchen approved so it should be done by the end of november. Bryan Hawks Grandpa is building cabinets and we have a stove, countertop, sink, dishwasher. so things are really in the works here, and i think we’re repainting both the basement lounge and the upstairs lounge. The main goal is keeping the house and not letting it be demolished.

        Pumpkin sales start next week, i’ve called around to a couple pumpkin patches but since its been really wet up here there’s not a whole lot to choose from. We also have competition with CPC (campus programming council) because they are having a pumpkin carving thing during one of the nights we’ll be selling pumpkins.

          I think thats all for now.Talk soon,
