Hope Shelter Update<br />
by Bill Middleton<br />
Yes folks, the Hope Project is alive and well – it didn’t go<br />
away, it just got eclipsed for a short while by the hoopla<br />
The Hope Team<br />
of Parade! We have all been quietly busy doing the<br />
background work, and things are ready to start happening in Lisa Huffaker Director of Hope Inc.<br />
very visible ways!<br />

In the past few months, several important things have Lanean Hughes lhughes@fmstech.com<br />
happened on the road to making a new Hope a reality. It was<br />

discovered earlier in the year that the property on which Justin Hiegel jrhiegel@msn.com<br />
Hope currently sits was not suitable for construction, so<br />
an effort began in earnest to find another location. This has<br />
culminated in the purchase of a NEW lot just two blocks up<br />
the street from the current Hope<br />
site that is an excellent location!<br />
Conceptual drawings have<br />
been in process for about 2<br />
months now, and just recently the<br />
final floor plan has been produced.<br />
A preliminary set of drawings has<br />
been sent to the City for review<br />
and comments, and if there are no<br />
major issues, full drawings for<br />
permit will be produced shortly!<br />
At this rate, it is fully expected<br />
that the project should be ready to<br />
go to permit within weeks! We<br />
could see construction begin<br />
before the end of the year!<br />
At this time, what is most<br />
needed is the STUFF that will<br />
become the reality of Hope –<br />
Linda Bambina bina@airmail.net<br />
construction materials, skilled<br />
trade labor, individuals who can<br />
help with their time, talents, and<br />
resources. Please contact any<br />
Hope Team member for more<br />
information on how you can help<br />
build Hope!<br />
Groundbreaking ceremony<br />
will take place on Sunday,<br />
December 19th at 2:00 pm. Please<br />
come and support this great<br />
project. Following the ceremony<br />
will be a sharing of holiday treats<br />
with the clients at Hope<br />
Please contact a Hope Team<br />
member if you have resources to<br />
offer, or wish to be kept informed<br />
of Hope activities.<br />
