Can you help?

Though some of us will live at Raccoon Creek, residences are only one reason that one might visit our community. Eventually we will have facilities to accommodate classes from elementary to graduate levels, plus other groups, that would study the forest, sink holes, springs and other natural aspects of the property, our water treatment system, solar electricity generation, organic gardening, and other topics.

To allow such educational activities we need meeting space, trails, parking space, tables and chairs, accommodations for handicapped visitors, kitchen equipment, added toilet facilities, and, eventually, overnight sleeping rooms.

We hope to pay for some of these things with grant funds, but much will have to come from donations of material, equipment and services. We would be grateful for your help in locating any of these items.

I have uploaded a plain-text document containing a list of ways to help and things we need, and provided a link to it in the column to the right. We will keep the list up to date as needs are met and new ones recognized.
