We successfully made it through our summer and have transitioned into our fall programming and weekend schedule. After moving the majority of our office BACK downstate to Farmington, the fall is in full swing!
Our first fall "weekend" was the Labor Day Work Weekend. It didn't feel like fall one bit as we had beautiful weather and sunshine the entire time. Good weather is conducive to work getting done! One of our summer campers came up with a few other guys from his troop to complete his Eagle Scout project, which was replacing the steps going up to the Rec Hall. They did a great job with the area and were able to get a few other jobs done as well including some work on our corral and planting a garden in front of our camp sign inside the gate!
In total, we had about 35 people at the work weekend. With that many people, we were able to take down ALL of the platform tents and prepare them for winter, finish carpentry on some cabins, paint cabins, clean a couple of our buildings, winterize the pool, AND complete the tiling project on the girls side of the Cedars bathhouse among other projects. We are grateful for everyone who was able to come up for the weekend!
We're looking forward to our parent/child weekends these next few weeks. Coming up next is mother/daughter weekend Sept 18-20. Continue to pray for safety and good weather as we serve Him and others through this ministry!
