Wednesday was a beautiful warm summer day here, and that provided exactly what we needed for the ground breaking at the school building. We had a nice turn out, probably around 100 people, including city officials, and OCA families both past and present, and friends of OCA.
Ground was broken, visitors signed a steel beam which will be included in the construction of the building, and toured the renovation work underway in the existing building. Security National Bank, and Hy Vee sponsored the event by providing light refreshments.
The renovation work is progressing so very nicely. A big thanks to Kim Palmer of KLP, Inc. for his continued efforts managing the renovation work. Consider contacting Kim if you have any remodel or construction projects. He does great work!
I spoke with our construction team about the schedule for the new structure. The deadline for finishing the grading work is in two weeks. During that time, fill dirt will be brought to the site, so that the floor of both buildings will be at the same level. Please pray for good weather during this phase. Rebar is to be delivered in two weeks, and the dirt work needs to be done so that footings can be constructed.
Have a safe and happy holiday. Praise the Lord for in nation we live in, where we are free to educate our children in the ways of His Holy Word.
