Huge Thanks to our Day of Caring 2007 Volunteers...

from Republic Bank: Andrea Heister, Tish Marek, Mary Dearing

from OU: Ed Marek

...with Special Thanks to Norman Regional Health Systems for a grant to assist with flooring costs for this project!

This amazing team of volunteers, with help from some of our clients, helped transform the floor in our Drop-In Center from very worn carpeting - to beautiful wood looking flooring!  This is part of an effort called The Serenity Project.  For our agency, this is our way of transforming our agency into a more peaceful and serene space for the clients who participate in our programs.  Environment does make a difference in helping people through their recovery process.

...and 'no one puts Baby in a corner!'

That statement let everyone know that goofy was starting to set in... then exhaustion, but this group persevered until the job was done - well after 5:00 pm!

Andrea was proud that she worked so hard she got blisters on her knees!

From all of us at Transition House, Inc.

Thank You 2007 Day of Caring Volunteers!

Your hard work and determination to do a great job really made a huge difference in the appearance of our Drop-In Center.  Your effort was a wonderful follow-up to the painting done during our agency retreat in August.

Drop-In Center Update

Here are some updated photos of the Drop-In Center that show work that was completed after Day of Caring.  Thanks to Ed & Tish Marek for donating new floor vents and to Coltrane Properties for adding new baseboards and for doing some additional painting!
