Patient Tent is Totally Restored!

Recently, on a beautiful November Sunday, the last surviving tent from the days when JCRS was known as "Tent City" was swept out and its historic furnishings were re-installed. The original iron bed, the wash stand, the chairs, the freshly laundered sheets and blankets have all been carefully rearranged. Over the course of the last year, the Foundation has repaired and restored the tent, getting almost all the materials and work donated by local businesses and volunteers. A new concrete foundation was poured by Suburban Reddi-Mix Concrete. The forms were set by Tony Capra of Arvada.
