DESCRIPTION
This three story educational facility for Sherwood Baptist Church incorporates educational classrooms and fellowship areas for all ages. Van Winkle constructed this building in two phases: the first phase included all new construction and the second included the remodel of the existing church and tie-in to the new wing.
The new wing includes classrooms, offices, welcome area, café, patio dining area, indoor and outdoor playgrounds, commercial kitchen, and the Ron Dunn Center for Biblical Studies.
FEATURES
Ron Dunn Center
The Ron Dunn Center for Biblical Studies includes a media center, adult classrooms, and study space.
Youth Fellowship and Education Areas
The new education wing includes themed classrooms for K12 youth, kindergarten, and preschool groups. Indoor and outdoor playground areas provide recreational spaces for younger ages while the cafe provides gathering space for older grades.
CHALLENGES
Utility management and tie-ins proved a challenge on this occupied campus. Additionally, the Owner requested each room’s HVAC be independently controlled as well as be controlled by remote. Van Winkle installed a ductless HVAC system incorporating over three miles of refrigerant lines throughout the project.
Multiple Owner-requested Change Orders and incomplete drawings complicated the project timeline, but Van Winkle completed this project on schedule.
