DIY Week 4

DIY Week 4

This week:

      This week started competition season for the swim team. There are a lot of people on the pool deck at all times and soon the meets will start and there will be even more traffic. The team room has been started to be used quite often lately for people that have practice later in the afternoon and want to start their homework. I'v noticed that there isn't enough sitting room or writing room. And when people are not doing homework in there, they have nothing to do. So, I have decided that the T.V. and entertainment systems need to get in there as quickly as possible.

      The T.V. that my grandma is going to donate is 32", plenty big enough for the team. It will be able to be used for presentations, movies, exercise videos, and movies. Connor's mom has also decided to help us with the room and donate furniture to enclose the T.V. when it isn't in use. 

      We talked to two more coaches and they have also suggested to paint the door, organize the equipment room, and stabilize the white board to the wall. 

      This week, we really needed to finalize the flooring situation since it was extremely important to the cost of the project. We decided that since we don't know what is under the flooring,  and what else to put in that will be cost effective and water proof. So, we have decided to steam clean the floor and also buy a small floor rug for the center in case someone wants to sit on the floor. 

Next week:

      Next week, we won't be able to make much progress because we will be gone for the weekend and one night during the week for swim meets. However, we will need to record the pitch for the project since we won't be able to do it in class on Friday. We are going to interview the coach and other swimmers to give input in our presentation as to why the team room needs a re-do and what needs to get done.
