Saving American Hearts update on new address!
It's all coming together! The new space is big and beautiful! Everybody can spread out and have
their own desks! We are still unpacking and once we get it all settled we'll make a walkthrough video
so you can see it! Here's a link to a video: It's an MP4, so once you click the link it will be in the top right corner where you would download a file or PDF if you are using Google Chrome. It you use something else, it will be in the bottom left corner of your screen.
Here's a few pictures! We are incredibly excited!!! We are just 4 minutes off I-25.
We are close to a lot of different food and things now like..
Chick-fil-A 6 minutes 1620 S Nevada Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80905
Wendy's 9 Minutes 1541 S Nevada Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80905
McDonald's 7 Minutes 1824 S Nevada Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80906
Taco Bell 7 Minutes 1507 S Nevada Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80906
KFC 7 Minutes 1501 S Nevada Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80906
Burger King 7 Minutes 1895 S Nevada Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80905
Domino's Pizza 8 Minutes 1823 S Nevada Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80905
Angry Chicken & Juicy 88 Hotdog 8 Minutes 1869 S Nevada Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80905
Arceo's Mexican Restaurant, 7 Minutes 1605 S Nevada Ave, Colorado Springs, CO 80905
The whole move is much more overwhelming than I thought! It seems like every five seconds it's we need this and don't forget that, make copies of keys, replace the door knobs with push button codes because Nelson forgets his keys LOL!
We have to hang things on the wall, replace a few doorhandles, get a full size fridge, move the wifi around till we find the magic spot. I initially thought we were on the first floor, but it turns out we are in the basement. We did find one magic spot for wifi reception and we'll put a carpet decal there LOL!!! and we are going to get a wifi booster and see if it helps.
We're going to paint a few things, and we put directional arrows up to help everyone find it. We made a map of the inside of the building with a path to follow and got some pictures to attach to everybody's emails, make sure everybody gets a new email that we moved and how to find us... change the address on everywebsite and social media post, every ad, everything. It's taken ten days so far, just to pack and move one office to another and unpack and set up the new chairs and desks, find all the equipment for the code room, BLS room, the IV class and NPR supplies, organize and repack the storage, carry out around a hundred or more boxes to the recyling in the parking lot, make sure there's bottled water, coffee and snacks, I could go on and on and on.. there is soooooooooooooooo much, but I am super happy!!!!
Turns out, without planning or noticing, that our first day of class at our new place was April 14th, on my birthday, so it was much more exciting!!
Triple super excited!!! I really love the new place! It feels so nice to walk in and see all the desks spread out and feel all the extra space!!! This is going to be epic!!!
