Work is complete on the ICCF Home.
On Saturday, March 31, 2007 11 volunteers gathered with rakes, shovels and brooms to clean up the yard. We were also able to take a tour of the inside of the house and got a feel for the amount of work that needs to be done. See the photos below for outdoor and indoor views of 1056 Calvin SE.
There was an open house on April 22nd after church. We had our coffee at the house and the neighborhood was be invited. This gave everyone a chance to see the home before we began.
As of Monday, March 26, 2007 we had raised $6,155.00 of the $10,000.00 that we pledged to ICCF as our share of this partnership.

The East Church Partnership house is at 1056 Calvin.
Dick found lots of last year's leaves that needed to be raked.
Kelly, Dick, Mike and Rosanne make quick work of a big job.
Kelly replaces dirt that had washed into the driveway.
Jane, Dave and Mike fill one of the many bags of debris removed from the yard.
Steve, Jack, Mike, Nancy, Kelly, Marilyn, Jane, Dave and Rosanne wonder if the original oak flooring can be restored.
Looks like the fireplace flue will need a good cleaning!
This small downstairs bath has been completely gutted by ICCF.
Can you date the house from this dining room wallpaper?
The kitchen is also ready for the ICCF crew to add new plumbing, heating and electrical.
The smallest of the 3 bedrooms was used as a darkroom by the previous owner. When finished it will make a great baby's room.
The hardwood floor in the master bedroom looks pretty good, but dips and bumps would make a sleepwalker seasick.
