Voluntown (WTNH) - The excitement is building in Voluntown. Crews are working
quickly to make sure the Extreme Makeover home is ready for a
family's return later today.
Dozens of volunteers and organizations pitched in over the past
few days to help with the Girard family's new home, but Mother
Nature was not so kind.
Lead builder Bruno Hayn told The Day of New London newspaper the
"weather was kicking their ass." Since the build began, crews have
had to deal with snow, freezing temperatures, gusty winds and
rain.
The weather put them hours behind schedule and has them racing
to the finish.
The Girard family is expected to be home around 2:00 p.m.
We're told all are welcome to view the big reveal.
Shuttles buses will be leaving parking lot 10 from Foxwoods
Resort Casino throughout the day.
