On the road again. Yes, the summer is over and it is time for another RVICS project. This month will find us at Camp Fairwood near Westfield, Wisconsin. After arriving a few days ago, we and 5 other couples have settled in for a month of painting and light construction. We represent the midwest and are from Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Minnesota and Wisconsin. Once again we are meeting 4 new couples since we have only worked with the leaders previously. What fun!
The above pictures show our team for the month. The camp has the feel of a state park with lots of trees and lakes near here. Internet service is available with wifi but we have to walk some distance to get this “necessary” service. The last picture shows our office. Isn’t it beautiful?!
Family Camp was this weekend and it was great to see the camp in action. There were babies, children on bicycles, parents and grandpas and grandmas everywhere taking full advantage of the activities. This week we will be meeting with the director to learn more of the history etc of his camp. Already, we have heard of the impact on the lives of those who have “camped”. No longer than we have been here, we are greatly impressed with the director and the one other full time employee. They are 100% hands on.
Tomorrow morning will find Sharon with a scraper and a paint brush and Don with a crow bar and other destructive tools. However, we are excited and looking forward to getting started.
