Camp Lassen Projects

Each year the Council camp budget is established to provide the materials and services to ensure that camp is opened and ready for business.  That is the primary focus – get camp ready and make camp run. However, that budget generally is tailored to make the facility work, stretch the dollars and not necessarily make it right.  It’s not for lack of intent, it’s just the domino effect of where do you stop on buildings that are so rustic and heavily used.

 

So every year, we always identify a group of items that are needed, but always seem to be out of reach for the maintenance budget. "What can we do?". Here is a short list.

 

Picnic tables - Each winter several picnic table are lost due to there exposure to the weather. This past winter was expecily hard. Bring a table, or two, to camp to enjoy in your campsite and leave them there.
