Bunkhouse Interior Remodel
We need more living area and bathrooms for teams! This photo was taken in December 2025. The three garage doors were removed and installed on the new garages (2) on the House Garage & (1) on the Main Garage. Once we move all the garage related items (tools, shelving) that are currently in the lower part of the Bunkhouse and take them to the Main Garage, we will begin laying out the new floor plan for turning that area into more living space for our team members. The end goal is to have the women stay downstairs and men upstairs. Additional bathrooms will be installed as well.
