Conifer Community Church was a hubbub of activity Saturday as 200 volunteers gathered for the annual Split & Steak, five hours of tough work to split wood and prepare it to be donated to families in need.
The air was filled with the sounds of chainsaws and wood splitters, while grill masters were busy cooking steaks for lunch after the work was done for the day.
“We are the hands and feet of God,” Kevin Nervick, an organizer of the ninth annual event, said.
Last year the volunteers prepared 72 cords of wood during Split & Steak. Imagine wood stacked 4 feet high and 4 feet wide that goes the length of nearly two football fields.
The wood goes to church members and to families helped by the Mountain Resource Center.
