This summer’s Clerical Retreat was all about “building” relationships and what better way to put that theme into action than by handing us power tools?! 😂🔨
We stepped away from our usual work environment and tried something completely different together. We cut boards, routed edges, used staple guns and power tools, and somehow walked away with actual bird feeders — and all our fingers! 🙌😂🐦
There’s something special about stepping outside our normal routines, laughing together, learning something new, helping one another, and getting to know the people we work alongside in a whole different environment. ❤️ It was a great reminder that building strong relationships is just as important as the work we do every day.
A huge thank you to Mr. Jones, teacher of our Building and Construction Trades program, for his patience, encouragement, and for trusting us with the power tools! 😆
Turns out, we’re actually pretty handy! 💪🔨🐦
