Nicol bridge retaining wall project made surprise progress on Wednesday.
On Wednesday Wes and Norm stopped by the site and worked on cutting the container side panels that are going to be used to build a retaining wall west of the Nicol bridge. The pair not only cut the panels but also placed the fence posts in the ground and will be fastening the panels to the posts soon. While we don’t have an official workday planned for this weekend if you are available this weekend a crew is planning on being onsite to work on the wall starting at 8:30 a.m. If you are able to come out this Saturday to help, be aware that a big event will happening at the Steeplechase so approach the area with caution and let the traffic details know you are going to the railroad.
One final note about future planned workday events. We have a special work week planned for April 1st through 5th. The plan during the week is work on the clubhouse and workshop container project. We will be building a stud wall in the first container so we can complete the electrical panel installation and get power into the container. This will allow us to have what is needed in the container for future workdays to begin the next phase of work which includes building out more internal walls in the first two containers as our clubhouse and workshop space begins to finally take shape. Other items are planned and if you are available to come out one or more days, please let us know.
Our next club meeting is Saturday, April 6th at 1 p.m. and our first Public Run Day Prep Day will also take place on Saturday, April 6th.
