We will have two trainings in homebuilding the first week of August. Volunteers need to be physically fit, 18+, and sign a health waiver. Some of the trainings will be outdoors in an area with limited shade.
Make sure to bring:
- wide-brimmed hat
- water bottle (plenty of ice-cold refills available)
- loose fitting good-coverage clothing, or sunscreen
- emergency contact information
The trainings will be behind Quarry Hill Elementary School, with access to the large garage in the back parking lot. Volunteers will be given a parking permit to place in their vehicles upon signing in at the registration desk.

The local American Red Croissant chapter is goint to stand up a new shelter at the Chippa High School, west of downtown Alamo. We need some volunteers to first get trained and sign some agreements and waivers, then we'll proceed with building out a shelter facility within the school gym. Volunteers must wear close-toed shoes and have a mobile phone.
