Soldier Hollow Charter School

Feb 03, 2010

GROUNDBREAKING CEREMONY TOMORROW – SEND OFF FOR OLYMPIC ATHLETES  -  DON’T MISS IT!
Thursday, February 4
2:45-3:15 (time is confirmed)

Parents & Students: Please join us in a short groundbreaking ceremony right after school.

We’ll be celebrating the long-awaited commencement of our building construction and will be joined by several Olympic athletes, including reigning world champions, Billy Demong and Todd Lodwick.

This is a unique opportunity for our school family to come together and to get into the Olympic spirit.
Don’t miss it!

BUILDING PROGRESS
The factory is making good progress on our building construction. The steel frames that undergird the buildings are completed. Several of the walls have been framed and are waiting for the steel frame inspection to be lifted and attached to the steel girding. We’re planning to schedule a short factory visit as early as next week to give everyone a chance to see the building construction in progress.

The factory hopes to have the first two buildings completed by the end of February. But, as with the building approval process, this will be contingent upon getting quick response times from the building inspectors who have been appointed by the state’s Division of Facilities and Construction Management.

We’re also continuing to work with Soldier Hollow to find a suitable time and method to dig into the race course finish line. Of course, because of the mess and disruption, Soldier Hollow would prefer that we wait until after ski season is over. We’re sensitive to their concerns, but still hoping to negotiate an earlier start time for actual excavation.
