<font face="Times New Roman, Times">Hi Habitat exec:<br><br>
There has been a little snag in the plans, unless one of you knows
something that I don't... When Facilities went to pick up the wood
and move it to storage, the wood was already gone. I know you guys
have the Kresge Oval reserved for this weekend to do your Campus Build,
but somehow the wood has either been stolen, or (hopefully!) one of you
contacted Home Depot and they picked it up? <br><br>
Please let me know if any of you know what might have happened to the
wood.<br><br>
Thanks so much,<br>
Tracy<br><br>

Hi Elyse,<br><br>
Habitat has reserved the Dot for Saturday, April 30 from 9am to
5pm. You don't have a reservation for Kresge Lawn. Please
have a reservation signatory come in to the CAC office and complete a
change form if you'd like to change the reservation to Kresge Lawn, May
1, 9am to 5pm. Thanks!<br><br>

Hi Tracy,<br><br>
We were not informed of the cancellation until 2 AM Saturday morning
and<br>
therefore could not cancel the delivery of the supplies. We also
intend to<br>
hold Campus Build this upcoming weekend, when the weather is expected to
be<br>
better. I asked the Spring Weekend committee to assist us in
finding<br>
storage, but never received a response one way or the other. Since
this is<br>
the case, is there any way we can get assistance in moving the wood to
some<br>
sort of storage facility? We have no where to store the wood
ourselves but<br>
feel that we should have been given more warning to this matter.
Perhaps we<br>
can put them in Johnson or some other nearby location where they would
be<br>
more out of the way? <br><br>
If this is impossible, then I guess we'll have to return the wood to
Home<br>
Depot and pay for the delivery/pick-up fees.<br><br>
Sorry for any inconveniences this is causing, <br><br>

Hi Elyse and Habitat for Humanity officers:<br><br>
It seems that Home Depot made its delivery on Saturday to MIT's campus
<br>
despite the fact that the Campus Build event had been cancelled earlier
in <br>
the week due to the weather forecast. It came to my attention this
morning <br>
that there are building materials blocking a sidewalk by Kresge
Auditorium, <br>
and MIT's Facilities Department wanted to know what to do with
them. We <br>
asked them to give us until the end of the day to get in touch with you
so <br>
that your group wouldn't be out money if the supplies could, in fact, be
<br>
returned to Home Depot.<br><br>
The supplies can not stay where they are and we are trying to stay in the
<br>
good graces of Facilities such that they do not decide to charge for the
<br>
removal of the lumber!<br><br>
Please get back to me ASAP with a decision on what you want to do with
the <br>
materials. Will Home Depot take them back at no charge? Can
they be <br>
donated someplace (note: MIT will not deliver them)? Can we just
get rid <br>
of them entirely?<br><br>
thanks so much,<br>
Tracy<br><br>
