.....Our Barrack Project.....
BEFORE: Spring 2015
NOW: Fall 2017
The weeds have been cleared away. They viewed the completed stabilized and re-roofing on our project's barrack. Our contractor, Charles Goodballet, stabilized our barrack as the tarp had been torn to shreds. (See before picture) What he has applied will help preserve it through the wind and rain!!!
