As you all know, we officially closed on the property on Walnut Grove Road! SOF now owns its own land!!!! We anticipated that we would have "moved dirt" by now, but due to proper paperwork and processes being followed, we have not recieved all the permits yet to get moving. We fully expect those permits in the next week or so, and have an expected date to start grading the land the week of June 28th. This puts us behind our initial projection of moving in August. However, we fully believe we can be in the new facility no later than the end of September, hopefully the front end of that month, Lord Willing.
Please continue to be in prayer as we all want this gift of our own building to come sooner than later. Pray that once they get the grading equipment in there later this month, that there be LITTLE OR NO RAIN until we can get the building framed and "dried in".
This delay in moving does mean a temporary change in the fall schedule for companies. I am working with your teachers to put that temporary schedule in place. Once we move, it will resume to the planned schedule you already have and that is posted. Most of the non-company classes will remain as scheduled to allow those students who come only once a week to stay more consistant. This just makes more sense business wise. Thanks for your flexibility here. Know that any change in schedule is ONLY TEMPORARY and the REWARDS WILL BE GREAT!!!!!
I will keep you all posted! Call me as you need to. I am back in town and (just about) ready to roll!!!
Love you all,
Ms. Julie
