Thanks so much to those who responded! Gives me a great feeling for
when people will be available.

3 dates so far:

Session One: Tuesday, June 7th, 8:00am - 12:00pm
Respondents: Zach, Emily H., Stefan
This session will probably be mostly painting foam rafts, drilling
holes in said rafts, and cutting said rafts into handle-able sizes.
Each of those tasks takes a power tool I own, so we're probably pretty
good for division of labor and tools.
As this is a morning session, refreshments will probably be bagels
and/or donuts, and coffee. Any other favorite morning refreshments I
should offer?

Session Two: Saturday, June 11th, 12:00pm - 5:00pm
Respondents: Caleb, Emily H., Stefan, Fer
This session will probably be mostly assembling troughs out of 2x4s,
and moving some equipment around.
Power drills would be terribly useful additions to this session! I
have all the drill bits I need to spread out among workers, but extra
drills would be wonderful. Battery-charged drills are plenty powerful
enough for most of these tasks.
Refreshments will probably be Pizza and Pop/Beer/stuff, probably
around 3, unless people will want lunch right off?

Session Three: Sunday, June 12th, 12:00pm - 5:00pm
Respondents: Zach, Caleb, Fer
This session will probably be digging, plumbing, and various finishing
tasks, or more likely finishing up what we did in sessions One and
Two.
Refreshments will probably be Pizza and Pop/Beer/stuff, probably
around 3, unless people will want lunch right off?

People other than those who responded are welcome to come, and
everyone is free to come and go as you wish, of course!

The greenhouse is out in Hugo, so carpooling might be a good idea. If
you don't know the others who responded, I can put people in touch for
carpooling.
Directions and stuff can be found here:

The website says no restrooms. That's a lie, really... It's just
behind a locked door.
