This is an update from Lorna: (update 1/24/08)
The design of Pinehurst Shelter House is in process. It has been a long time in coming. The Shelter is located at Pinehurst Playfield. While most of you know where it is, for others it is on 14th Avenue NE between NE 120th and 123rd Streets. The Shelter House will serve as the home for Pinehurst Community Council and many other community events.
We will be holding a public design meeting at the Shelterhouse on Saturday, March 8 at 10:00 a.m.
So far we plan new exterior doors with a row of new windows between, with a partial brick façade. The interior will be painted in contemporary colors, with a decorative cement treatment on the floors. The bathrooms will be gutted and remodeled and an interior room will be torn down to make room for a food warming area. There will be a heating system installed for year-round use of the building. If we have enough money, I would like to have a movie screen installed so we can show kids movies on Saturdays and parents movies on Friday nights (as a suggestion).
I hope you can join us for our meetings. We will likely have other Pinehurst news to present as well.
Also, if any of you would like to volunteer for the steering committee, we are looking for one or two others. The time commitment will be minimal. We will also need crews for demolition, painting, etc.
