Exciting progress is being made at the campsite! With each day, camp begins to look more and more like the magical place it will be upon opening next summer. Construction photos and an update from our Facilities Manager Paul St. Ruth are posted monthly – be sure to check back and view our progress. The Archived Construction Photos section shows how far we have come in building the camp.
