Starting this Thursday, a roofing contractor will be on campus to install a new roof on the dining hall. There may be some noise involved, although this should be fairly minimal because they won’t be doing much nailing. They are bringing in a fairly large dumpster and are taking three parking spaces for their vehicles behind the building. The side door that is used for Children’s Center and Dining Hall access will remain open during the work. We will be installing some access ‘tunnels’ (think New York ) for this door and the contractors will be installing a barrier on the roof perimeter as well. Once we have a better idea how long the project will take, I will send an update. I would appreciate everyone using care when they are in this area. If anyone has any questions or concerns, please let me know.
Thanks,
Paul Bricker
Maintenance Manager

Hello Williston.
Just a short reminder that today, Wednesday, April 30, is the last day to submit some concrete poetry to win a Tandem Gift card in Janus’s Monthly Poetry Competition.
Just to remind people: Concrete poetry is poetry that is written to be in some kind of shape. It could be any shape, from a smiley face to a sinking ship. Give it a try!
Please attach your poems as a word document and send them to janus@williston.com
Have a wonderful last few days of poetry month!
