Volunteer Time
We had over 350 volunteers to join us each day with the local Marine troops supplying 200+ really hard workers.  We couldn't have done it without our Marines!  Ooh-Rah...PKP loves the Marine Corp!!  From fundraising and community events to building the playground during construction week...volunteers for projects such as this often look back on the event as one of the best experiences of their lives.

There was  something for everybody!!

Sign up as a Construction Captain
Construction captains worked alongside the construction consultants, overseeing and instructing crews and helping to maintain quality. They made it possible for Leathers' consultants to keep hundreds of volunteers working efficiently. Strongly committed captains took care of the details that mad working on a project fun, safe, and productive. Without them, volunteers would have become frustrated because they had to wait for instructions, resulting in lost workers.
