Main Lodge:

- The 1x6 T&G for the Sanctuary ceiling is pre-stained and half of it has been installed.

- Concrete was poured for the stairs, lower patio and walk-in freezer on the west side.
- The rough electrical work has been completed in the kitchen.
- Some of the can lights/bulbs have been installed in the Sanctuary. Bill J pictured:
- General clean up was done around both the inside and outside of the Lodge

Staff Cabin:

- The floor had some screws missing so Jimmy M was happy to find them!
Baths:

- The new plywood on the walls needs to be perfectly flat in prep for the new Vortex finish, so some of the puttying was completed.

- According to building officials, we should have the permits for the saunas before May 31st.

Parking/Grading:

- Have been in contact with Yavapai County officials in obtaining permits or permission to finalize grade/parking.

Note: The PNF has announced that we are in Stage 1 burn restrictions (Effective 5-11-11). This means: NO burning, smoking outside of vehicles, BBQ grills, fireworks, etc in the NF. The NF has also stated that we can do what we wish on private land and they cannot enforce their rules on our property. However, we have always followed what they have said and have discontinued burning when restrictions have been in place. Yes, I know the snow just melted and we have had some rain recently but it has been really windy up here and winds dry things out fast, especially once it gets warm.
