Habitat for Humanity, Cranbrook Open House

Once again, Cranbrook's community spirit was on full display Friday November 10th evening, when approximately 60 people attended the Habitat for Humanity Open House.  Unfortunately, Mark Rodgers (COO Habitat Canada), was stranded in the Toronto airport but Harvey Linnen, and Con Hnatiuk (Consultants - HJ Linnen Associates Ltd) arrived from Regina, and were scheduled to be involved in the merger talks on Saturday.  Ray Hanson (Chair), Rick Friesen (Executive Director) Habitat Boundary and Marc Allarie (Chair), Gary Drouin and several others from Habitat West Kootenay also attended the Open House.

There was a lot of energy and enthusiasm in the room as several more businesses stepped forward to become involved in the build in Cranbrook.  Representatives from Sunrise Rotary Club were also present.

The house plans were on display and a slide show of the work to date.
