Greenpoint volunteers help West Seattle homeowner





RTS wants to thank major SRD Sponsor, Greenpoint Technologies, for their great work on Spring Rebuilding Day 2010. Volunteers from Greenpoint Technologies (lead by Project Manager, Randy Green of Green Construction, and Becky Pelletier of Greenpoint Techologies) assisted an elderly homeowner in West Seattle, named Dolores.

Greenpoint set an all time SRD record, finishing all of their work shortly after 1:00pm! Volunteers cut trees in the front of the house, repaired leaks, provided new railings, and helped with other interior repairs and yard work.

As an added bonus, the Greenpoint volunteers received special treatment from their thoughtful homeowner. "Dolores made cookies for us on Saturday," Becky said. "After lunch she brought them out in a neat little tin. Not only was the gesture nice, but the cookies were so delicious that one of our volunteers got the recipe from her so we could share with our group!"

Thank you, Greenpoint volunteers, for your great work this year, and to Dolores, for sharing your fantastic receipe!
