Move-In Week!

This week we're moving into our new Bridge 45 classroom! I still don't feel like it's really happening. It'll be a little rushed at the last minute--I waited until last week to order the major items because we didn't have the room to store them until the locks were working on the doors to the modular. I know there'll be a lot of details to work out the first few weeks in the new classroom (Like we realized today--how are we going to do dismissal? Normally we have the parents line up at the doors to the room and dismiss the kids one by one. But this new space has outside access with no roof covering, and with the weather what it is in Oregon, I have a feeling we'd end up with some very cranky, and wet, parents!), but for now, we're hoping to think of as many things as possible!
Here's a list of what we still have left to do:
-The folding chairs are scheduled to be delivered Wednesday (tomorrow)
-The two flat-screen TVs will be delivered Thursday
-Purchase the wall-mounts for the TVs
-Have the wall mounts hung and the TVs attached
-Hook up the laptop with Media Shout to the TVs and make sure they work together
-The sound system (we're getting an incredible system from Bose... check it out here will be delivered Thursday or Friday
-Set up the sound system
-Pick up two Foosball tables and a futon from families in the church
-Install temporary window coverings (we'll later get permanent ones for all the units)
-Purchase trash cans, water and cups (no plumbing in the unit)
-Move remaining supplies and materials from the old room
-Pass the final inspection (we had one yesterday and we just need to fix a few things)

All in all, with some great volunteers, it's very doable!
