Up and running

The camp is ready for work crews or individual helpers! All the water is on and we are starting to bring in materials.
Today we started working on a new bicycle trail. This is an off road trail that can be used for biking or as a nature trail. Jerry cleared brush and built a bridge over a wet spot. Tomorrow we will add another loop an the trail will be ready for use!

I heard that someone is going to donate a Kayak to camp, Praise the Lord!

Spring is here!

Warm weather is helping us get an early start. I removed the snow blower from the camp tractor yesterday and greased and mounted the mower deck. Grinding up all those leaves saves a lot of work! Most of the camp is raked and starting to look good.
Transplanted about 30 trees on Monday, We try to add to the landscaping every year.
This year I brought in some White Birch ( 5' to 8' trees) also some Tamarack, and White spruce.
Ripped up most of the carpet in the stage area of the chapel. Thanks to a donation from the Missionettes Department we will have new carpet next week.

Tomorrow I will start to turn on the water for another season.

NEEDS
  • If you have perennial flowers that you would like to donate to the camp, this is the season!
