The construction of CJs bus is not yet complete, but Saturday, the community got a sneak peek of what it will look like. The mobile recreation unit was on display along with classic cars at the "Cruise-in for CJs Bus" fundraiser. Kathryn Martin, mother of CJ, says it is really important for the community to see whats been done and where their money is going. According to Martin, each the bus will include a 280 foot playroom, two bathrooms, a shower, and a kitchen. The playroom will include a reading area, coloring area, and bean bags. The buses will be staffed by volunteers who have gone through a background check and disaster child care training. Martin says the bus will take $100,000 to complete and should be finished by mid-May. Two year-old CJ was killed in the 2005 tornado.
