National Rebuilding Day

National Rebuilding Day isn't until next Saturday (4/30), but several dedicated Lions have already begun pouring in plenty of hours in sweat equity.  That is because they want to ensure that the property they are voluntarily rehabilitating at 113 Mariposa is completed in a timely fashion.  Kudos to all the Lions who are lending their time, skills, and of course, sweat, in this home rehabilitation project!
