a basketball court on its way

We started pouring concrete on our first basketball court for the sport center! We have a team from USC here this week that have taken on the basketball court project. Some of Thomas' cousins that are welders are welding the beams for the basketball hoop and hopefully by April we will have a court ready to play on.

Here are a couple of pictures of what of all we've been up to
.



Also in building the big Ranchon, we decided to put in two small ones that are right between where the basketball court is going and where the volleyball court will be. St. Pauls, do you recognize that beautiful block wall? We just had a road grater here the other day and it smoothed out the volleyball court area and put more dirt at the end of the soccer field.



It's exciting to see things coming to life!

Glad to see things are getting done . . . next time I come down, I expect to play some ball . . . not just build a wall. :-)

Any chance there will be some lights on the court? We could get some late night basketball games going on, instead of that stupid "Chang" game.

(just kidding about the lights)

are the courts done yet?
It seems like those good folks have been pouring concrete for some time now.

some kind of volunteer work, seems more like chain-gang work...
