Calling it a “life-changing” encounter, Moore — now Montana State’s director of football operations — held close that experience and has since organized a Global Village excursion for 10 current Bobcat players, who will journey to Krakow, Poland, next week.
The entourage will consist of Moore and MSU players Troy Andersen, Jacob Hadley, Mitch Brott, Wilson Brott, Balue Chapman, Michael Jobman, Walker Cozzie, Colin Hammock, Luke May and Kyle Finch. While in Poland, they will build a house for what Moore said is an underprivileged family.
They’ll leave next Friday and will return May 14.

Very impressed with this group of young men, like Moore, this will be a life long lesson.

Re: Poland Trip for 10 Bobcats
Very Cool, always great to be a Bobcat.
Come back safe.
Never been to Poland, but I have spent time in Lithuania not to far away. As most places over there I imagine ICE is scarce and things are expensive.

Re: Poland Trip for 10 Bobcats
I've been there where the boys are at seeing what they are seeing. Let's hope they can get a taste of the local brews as well! Fun to see the Cats coming over to my side of the world showing the world some Cat love!

[emoji2][emoji2] Appears a lot of framing is masonry. If they use wood are studs on 406.4 mm centers??St George wrote:As a matter of fact, yes they are. I have one for all the work I have done in Sweden.77matcat wrote:Are the tape measures metric???

Re: Poland Trip for 10 Bobcats
All my experience in Sweden was large industrial, The iron shapes used there were all metric and different than what we can buy here in the USA. Example, The number of metric beams were far smaller than the amount of what we can choose from here. The pre-manufactured assemblies we used were built in Lithuania and trucked up and around to Sweden. Once on site the welders were mainly from Romania and worked for a contractor from Norway.77matcat wrote:[emoji2][emoji2] Appears a lot of framing is masonry.

Re: Poland Trip for 10 Bobcats
Is there any chance they can recruit a big man for the men's BB team while they are there?
While registering my vehicles the assessor stated "I have had both Cat and Griz students and alums work for me and the Griz end up working under the direction of the Cats."

Re: Poland Trip for 10 Bobcats
I'm building 2 homes in Croatia and all the framing is concrete block. Very little wood is used in Europe, and sheetrock is not a thing here. Plaster, wall paper and stone, concrete is the process. My stone masons who work for my Croatian builder all come from Macedonia and Serbia.St George wrote:All my experience in Sweden was large industrial, The iron shapes used there were all metric and different than what we can buy here in the USA.
