What this all means, of course, is that we are going to need a LOT of volunteer labor and funds to develop it though, and for other programs such as a survival school, meal delivery programs for elders, clothing drives for winter, etc.
We are planning to break ground on a community center/free store as well as place to receive donations come spring.
In the meantime, more importantly than our own fundraiser is this one specifically for firewood for winter. There have already been freeze warnings in South Dakota as of yesterday.
We're all very excited about this, and the community services it will enable us to provide in the future! Thanks to everyone for your support!
