Raffle Bus Work Party - Saturday, March 29, 2025
We're trying our best to get as much done as we can before our Buses, Bugs & Brews event on April 5th. If you've got time and would like to help out, come on down! Haven't been to a work party yet? Shoot us an email and we'll send you the address. And the best part is the wonderful lunch that Greta provides for us. It's worth that alone!
Don't forget to check out the awesome curtains Kitty made for the bus! You'll get a little hint as to what the cushions will look like (the cool plaid fabric trim 👀).

Raffle Bus #34 Work - Jan. 29, 2025
Well gang- we had planned to have a bus build this Saturday 2/1/2025 but we needed to have the bus painted to proceed with the build. As you have noticed, it’s been too cold to paint, so this has not been able to be done. Therefore, there WILL NOT be a build this Saturday. We need the temps to be over 70F for the primer and paint to stick to the metal.
In the meantime, Greg Pickrel and I cut the plywood for the sub floor and Greg Burlucchi came by and primed it. Greg B. also helped cut the plywood for the z bed.
