Camp for 60 ~ Phase 1 Finish

Longview is in the midst of an exciting, three-phase project to expand capacity from 40 to 60 campers and to improve our ability to serve them better!

 

The primary goal of phase one is to address four needs that will set Longview up well for future expansion and effective ministry:

​​

1. Adding a fire suppression system to the kitchen hood (new requirement for us!). Installed!

2. Finishing the Eagles Nest cabin remodel (entire interior with kitchen, plus the front porch).

3. Purchase and install AC/heat unit in the Ponderosa cabin for year-round use. Installed!

4. Purchase a tractor. We have spent $30,000 renting a skid steer over four summers. We would like to purchase our own tractor for dirt work, road maintenance, snow removal, and moving logs and building supplies year-round. Some projects just can’t be done with a shovel! 

 

Finishing Phase One of Camp for 60 has an estimated cost of $48,500.

​

$36,926 Raised as of November 17!  

$11,574 remaining need

Phase 1 projects already accomplished:

- Scout cabin re-sided

- Funding in place to re-finish the Ponderosa cabin floor

- New program activities added including The Forge and OneWheels

- Tractor fund has roughly half the funds needed to purchase a good used tractor

- Eagles Nest cabin exterior fully renovated with new siding, windows, doors, and roof
