The bids are in and have been reviewed, and we are pleased to announce that ZIPCO, Inc., will be our contractor to coordinate the remodeling work on our kitchen and dining hall project. We will be allowing ZIPCO access to the kitchen for initial work beginning May 26. Following TRASH AND TREASURE, we will turn the whole area over to the contractor with anticipation of project completion by the end of August. During construction the contractor will be using one-third of the parking lot outside the kitchen for a staging area. From time to time there may well be some disruptions to our normal way of doing things as construction progresses. For instance, we will probably have to host Sunday morning coffee and donuts in the gym. We may encounter other inconveniences from time to time this summer, but when it is all completed, we hope everyone will be pleased with the outcome.
Another piece of good news is we will be able to undertake the full scope of our project, which includes renovation of the kitchen and dining hall, as well as the addition of a café area in what is now the childcare area. The funds contributed toward the project will cover the construction costs, kitchen equipment, contingencies, architect fees and project manager fees. We might even have a small surplus when the project is finished.
So a big THANK YOU to everyone who contributed to the kitchen – dining hall remodeling project.
It is an exciting time at Platte Woods Church! On several church building projects I have seen posted the slogan – COME WATCH US GROW. So goes our Platte Woods Church!
