Kenesserie Camp – Their “Solid Ground & Soaring Future Campaign” has begun. The camp’s Board of Directors and professional consultants have determined that 3 things need to happen to take Kenesserie Camp into the future.
1. They need to relocate 6 camper cabins and the staff lounge. This entails pouring new concrete pads, running hydro to them and upgrading the roofing.
2. They need to build a new commercial kitchen. This will be an 80’x20’addition on the Spirit Centre and includes upgrades to the stoves and refrigerators.
3. They need to upgrade the electrical infrastructure. The Spirit Centre needs an increase in electrical capacity to handle the addition of a commercial kitchen.
Kenesserie Camp needs to raise $500,000.
Building Fund: $300,000
Equipment Fund: $100,000
Sustainability Fund: $100,000
