New News

The Plum Creek Foundation has informed us that our grant proposal has been approved for $1698.75 for the purchase of a Grindmaster Three portion Twin Model Shuttle coffee brewer with an extra shuttle and warming plate. Our proposal actually asked for a matching grant with FOCB funding $835.00 and Plum Creek funding the remainder of the cost. They instead decided to fund the entire project. This is wonderful news. The coffee pot that was used at camp was about 40 years old and really needed to be replaced.

Also, in the past month we have received $5375.00 in donations from 3 of our members who have been very generous to us in the past and continue their support of us this year.

I personally am so grateful each of you for your dedication to Camp. What we have been able to do for Camp and all those who benefit from our help is nothing short of a miracle.

 Merry Christmas, PJ
