Weather Policy:

Indoor work:
Once the houses are closed in and heated, indoor work will continue rain or shine.

Outdoor work:
Outdoor work is dependent on the weather. We do not work if the temperature is below 25 degrees, if it is snowing, raining, or thunder and lightning are occurring. If a work session is cancelled the day before, it will be posted on this web site. If a work session is cancelled the day of the event, Habitat will call WJBC AM 1230 for an announcement. Use your judgment regarding the weather. If you are not comfortable working in the weather conditions, come another time.
