Today the camp volunteers were busy at the the camp today.
Paul got the new light at the east side bridge. Brad got the Archery wall bracing on last week. Brad and with help got the majority of the fire wood moved to the new wood shed on the east side area. The drainage on the east side that crosses the trail is in and covered. The east side shelter got well deserved sweep out. Oh and we moved one of the porta potti’s from the outback to the lower parking lot, the other one will be moved next week and we I’ll continue clean up around the camp.

Please be advised the West side fire pit is closed due to construction the west side has to fire pits. Also the Bridge over the creek is closed to vehicle traffic, pedestrians are ok.

Well the the camp volunteers were back in the camp today. With Mike, Chris and Dave cleaning up wind debris and burning it in the Out Back sites. Dennis was digging up a storm for new drainage lines, with Brad and Paul laying the drain lines and keeping the gravity drain good. Norm was busy doing decorating in the Wolf Den. Me I made lunch I’m on a no work order from the Dr. and the wife.
