Austin Stone work team

Our first week of school started with the Austin Stone sending down a work team. These guys worked SUPER hard! I think harder than any other team I have seen. They were getting our school property ready for the wall we are going to put around the school. We cannot wait to have a wall so that people stop stealing our fruits and veggies and so that kids stop coming in whenever they feel like it. The team dug, tilled, carried block, tied steel, carted sand and rock, and weeded all while singing and smiling and having energy to play with kids. Great, great group. Here are some pictures:
