Volunteers built the ramp at 1197 Durkee Drive in Jacksonville and they also painted the soffits, trim, and eaves of house and the detached garage as well as landscaping. There were 36 volunteers.
“We had a wonderful time,” said Sandy Holdren of Realty Executives. “Lunch was provided by Jeff Marks at Ryan and Marks and mid morning snacks were provided by Eric Sommers of HomeBanc.”
