The major construction is done, and all that is left now is finishing work: painting, plastering, etc. The electric went in early February and a crew should be coming in to dig a well soon.

160; Back to Projects. We brought up a couple tons of cement, steel rebar, and a wheelbarrow in the truck, and the farmers group worked every weekend on the dam.
