We are Earth 4, an AmeriCorps NCCC team from the Southwest Region campus in Denver, Colorado! Our team has been serving in San Marcos, Texas since January 8th and we will remain here through the end of March. The San Marcos area endured three major disasters within five months in 2015; two floods and one tornado. We have been working with the Blanco River Regional Recovery Team clearing debris, rebuilding Section 8 projects and home rehabilitation. Our team has learned a bunch of construction skills including tiling floors, installing doors, trim, molding, insulation and drywall. We have thoroughly enjoyed our time here in Texas and are excited to see our project through over our final weeks here!
