Thank You for an Incredible Move-In Day!

Thank You for an Incredible Move-In Day!

Yesterday, our community showed up in the biggest way possible — and we can’t thank you enough.

When our board members arrived, they weren’t sure if even 10 people would come. Instead, folks were there 40 minutes early, ready to roll up their sleeves and help bring Grand River Makerspace to life.

Full parking lot!

Because of you — our volunteers, supporters, and new friends — here’s what we accomplished together in just one day:

  • Unloaded donated equipment (table saw, jointer, sanders, 3D printers, a laser cutter/engraver, filing cabinets, chairs, and more!)

  • Built workbenches that will become the foundation for countless future projects

  • Started assembling the Elegoo OrangeStorm — a giant 3D printer capable of printing objects over a meter tall

  • Took down a massive chain-link cage in only 15 minutes (teamwork makes the dream work!)

  • Shared pizza and donuts, fueling the day with laughter and connection

The energy in the room was amazing — excitement, teamwork, and creativity were everywhere. What could have been just a move-in day became a true community celebration.

To everyone who came out, donated tools, lifted boxes, grabbed a drill, or just cheered us on: thank you. You are the reason Grand River Makerspace is more than a building — it’s a community.

This was just the first step, and we’re thrilled to keep building this space with you and for you.
