MAINTENANCE NEEDS OF THE CONFERENCE CENTER
PLEASE HELP US BY GIVING THE GIFT OF CAMPING!

Can you or your organization help pay for some of the maintenance work that needs to be done at our facilities? The Conference Center has a modest budget allocated for maintenance. Most years this funding has been adequate. Our needs exceed our funding in 2008 and we are asking if you can help. We need your talents and your gifts in order to accomplish our goals. Thank you for looking over this list of financial needs and selecting how you can help in 2008.

Projects range in cost from $200 to $12,000.  Please help us however you can by sending a designated gift to the regional office for Camp Christian Work Projects.  Please note which project you want to fund.

Much of this work will be done by volunteers who love our camp. The work will be done at our Annual Work Day and during our Adult Work Retreat.

Project Needs List

  • 10 windows installed to make our summer cabins safer for use. The Purchase and installation of one window cost around $200 or all 10 can be funded with a $2,000 gift.
  • It is no fun to get your clothes wet when you are taking a shower. Unfortunately our bath house has a few low spots and does not drain properly. Could you help us with a $500 gift for the men’s or women’s side? $1,000 will pay for the supplies needed to repair the floors and repaint and touch up the bath house.
  • We desperately need to replace the rolled roofing on Lavery Hall. Leaks are no fun. Your gift for this program will help our youth program and our Conference Center ministries. You can re-roof 1/10 for $1,000 and the whole roof for just over $10,000. We were planning to have this professionally done but now have an experienced volunteer crew considering funding and installing this roof. Let’s pray that they can help with this ministry.
  • Exterior Painting on Peachtree Conference Center, Woodland Lodge, pool house and bath house fascia boards will cost about $700 for paint and supplies.
  • Supplies for additions and improvements to our challenge course will cost $250 with volunteers doing the work.
  • Re-painting and maintenance on all walls in Woodland Lodge done by a contractor for work in January was bid in at about $450 per room. The cost for all 10 rooms, the hall way and Gardner meeting room will cost about $5,850. Adults and youth use this building year-round.
  • If funding were available we would install new tiles on our swimming pool. Can you help us with this project? Costs are estimated to be around $12,000.
