Team Penobscot “Raises the Roof”

Team Penobscot “Raises the Roof”

What started out as a one day “Make a Difference Day” community service project has turned into a full fledged “let’s get it done project”. On Friday October 21, 2011 twelve carpentry and welding students  arrived with hammers and ladders to construct a roof over the entrances of two horse barns at the Double B Equine Rescue in Industry, Maine. It became very clear that this would be more than a one day effort. Students and staff returned this past Friday, October 28th and continued to make progress towards the ultimate goal of enclosing the two barns under one roof. Staff member Melissa Long describes the determination of our Penobscot students as fantastic. The students are SO determined to finish this project that they have asked to even go on a week-end! They want to see this roof built for these horses. Stayed tuned for further update’s as Team Penobscot continues to “Raise the Roof”.
