Wow! What an amazing week we just had! We are still unpacking from the seven crazy days we spent in Geneva at the site of the Extreme Makeover. We got to meet a bunch of really amazing people. The entire production crew who filmed this huge job for ABC was wonderful, very professional and did a great job of managing the site. The crew from Mahoney deisgn and build was first class! They had a very difficult job to do and they made it look easy! The hundreds of volunteers who donated their time and materials for this job were also great!

We found out that it takes about 6000 cups of coffee to build a house! We really enjoyed bringing our profession to people who definately appreciated it!

We need to thank Barden Homes for their kind donation of a large truck (and driver!) to pack all of our equipment up there. Also huge thanks to Bill Brothers Dairy right here in Cortland for their generous donation of milk and a cooler to store it in. Kerry foods, who supplies us with our Davinci syrup, and Oregon Chai also made a generous donation. Thanks are also in order for all of our staff who donated their time to help make this possible, you are the best!!!

We are right in the middle of a crazy week in Geneva NY at the location of ABCs "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition". Our coffee kiosk is set up in a very nice familys back yard and we are serving Coffee Mania coffee to the crew and volunteers. It's a strange combination of camping and running a coffee shop! We are watching as the Hill family gets a new home built for them in just seven days. We are pretty stoked to be there!

Coffee Mania has volunteered our services to be the premier coffee provider for the Central New York Edition of ABCs "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition"! So what that means is starting Monday August 18th until August 25th we will have our coffee kiosk on set of their build somewhere in Central New york, 24 hours a day! We don't yet know where the exact location is but we will let you all know as soon as we do. We are very excited to be a small part of helping a very deserving local family get a mega home makeover!!! If you would like more information about this project, please visit "www.mahoneygives.com"
