Forest Glen Station - Habitat Build Day - 5/4/03

Members of the Forest Glen Station Homeowners Association became construction workers for a day as we assisted Habitat for Humanity with building four new townhomes right in our own back yard. The build took place on Sunday, May 4th and our team worked primarily on adding plywood to the homes' roofs. Click on any picture to see it full size.
