Happy New Year!
We are back at school and still working on the "Thermal Research Project" that was started last year.
All three buildings now have electricity and lights and the ceilings have been insulated. The next step
will be to insulate one of the buildings with fiberglass insulation, one with blown in cellulose, and one will
not be insulated. We will run electric heaters for one week and collect the data to see which building performs
best. Stay tuned for the results.

New Sweatshirts
The students got their new hoodies this week and I could see the performance pick up a notch or two. We managed to get the Thermal Research buildings in place and ready for the next phase, insulation. I will keep you posted on our research. The students have been going through the lumber. A hard working bunch of students with some promising futures in construction.
