Bath House Financial Timeline at Present

the Matching-Funds

Drive is complete!
Each donation, $1 for $1 was matched totaling $20,000.

This Matching Funds Drive has helped cover a majority of the costs for the building structure; however, a full cost estimate has yet to be completely established, and as such, we are still raising more money to help bridge the gap between building costs & the much needed mechanical systems such as a solar heat exchange system, new stoves, radiant floor heating systems, etcetera. We are looking into multiple options for cost-savings such as harvesting timbers from the forest, but it's a hairy task.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for all your Support!!!!!

Bath House Construction Timeline - 2009
Phase I - digging out the foundation of the Bath House -
COMPLETED

Phase II - Earthen-Rammed Tire Construction - Ongoing
This part of the project requires tons of good upper body strength for some good ol' tire pounding. Even if you can only give a few good licks, give it what you can!

For more information on the progress & how to help out, please email us
or call 505-783-4002

Due to weather constraints, work is only possible June through October
