This summer we were able to add new lights and rewire the electrical system inside our event barn at the La Motte Recreation Center. An outdoor light to help illuminate the parking lot and driveway was also installed on the outside of the barn along with additional lights that we can turn on for events that are hosted there. In the past, we had to plug in our overhead lights and worry about strategically plugging in cords to avoid tripping breakers. The parking lot was unsafely dark.
We would like to express our gratitude to Jadyn Thole and his son, Dravin for ordering and installing all the equipment. They both donated all of the labor for this project! We only had to cover the equipment costs and were able to do this with fundraiser monies and two grant awards from the McDonough Foundation and the Aureon Charity Grant. Thank you so much to the Thole Family and your continued amazing support for our La Motte community. We appreciate you! ♥️
