School is out and the crew working on Churchill Hall at North Dakota State University (NDSU) is hard at work. The crew is installing 375 lineal feet of through-wall flashing, stone patching, and installing 80 pieces of new cast stone. In addition to Churchill Hall, Joel Vaughan’s crew is also completing three other projects on the NDSU campus. Their skilled craftsmanship will be a great addition to the NDSU campus.
