So many wonderful folks from the community helped us...
- The Aquatenniel Ambassadors helped with our lemon-aid stand.
- A group of volunteers from St. Paul Heating, Plumbing and Air and students from the U of M helped unload the 3 semis full of mattresses, box springs and frames.
- A group from C H Robinson came and helped put the new bed frames together.
- The Anoka High School football team ran the stairs of the house while lifting the mattresses and box springs.
- Our neighbors at the dental and medical fraternity helped out as the final beds were put into the rooms as the sun went down!
- Many of our regular volunteers came in for extra shifts to help and staff members and their families pitched in too.
- Last, our amazing families even pitched in - moving beds, putting the frames together, vacuuming and being flexible with the chaos.
Here are a couple of fun slide shows of all the excitement....
