"'77 takes the lead... We're the class that will succeed."
That's the motto of a group of volunteers celebrating their
35th class reunion by giving back to the community.
They partnered with the Habitat for Humanity to build a home
in only one weeks time.
Project '77 Co–Chair Sue Jarvis says they raised $50,000
dollars and had many of the materials donated in order to make the project
happen.
Yesterday the roof was completed leaving electrical
work, dry walling, and siding for today. Sue says she can't imagine a better way to spend her class
reunion.
"We're just ecstatic to do it, and everybody is having
a great time, and they are all glad we did it, they want to do it again. I want
to say thank you to everybody who has helped us. I want to say a special thank
you to my classmates and for coming so far we've got people from all over the
country here," said Jarvis.
Sue says the home will be unveiled Sunday to a working
mother of 5 from rapid city.
