Dakota Building and Trade Program

Dakota's Building Trades Program has been building houses for community members for many years.  Building Trades Instructor, Nick Katzenberger, and his "Trades" students build one house from the ground up each year.  In 2007-2008, the Building Trades Program built a house for Greg and Nancy Folk.  In 2008-2009, the Trades program  built a house for Mike and Whitney Lawler. The 2009-2010 project was built for Aaron Lawler.  The 2010-2011 project was built for Michelle and Neal Shippy.  This years projects are being done for David and Melody Graybill and Jayson and Holly DiModica.
