Conference Center Outside Wall and Roof
This picture shows the progress on the outside wall of the stage area.


Stage area interior
This is a view of the interior of the stage area including the new steps. In the ceiling, the new sprinkler system can be seen. Soon it will be covered by a new drop ceiling.


Here we can see the beginnings of the new audio visual room. Because a portion of this area will be set aside for recording, it will be sound proof.


Old Stage Area

The workers here are filling in the area where the old stage was. The large white pipe seen peeking out from the concrete wall is the conduit to run AV wires. Progress that has taken place since this picture was taken includes all camera wires being buried under the floor eliminating most of the visible cabling. What a blessing—no more concerns about tripping over wires!



This picture is taken from inside the main conference center. Looking through the two by fours to the other side of the wall in progress, the new exhibition room can viewed. Having a separate room will help to cut down on noise during the program.
