SERVICE WEEKENDS AT NATURE CAMP

(general information on service weekends follow below special notice)

SPECIAL NOTICE: SPRING 2008 SERVICE WEEKEND POSTPOSTED

Service Weekend is rescheduled to new date: May 30-June 1

Note from the Service Weekend Coordinator Jim Brooks:

Please don't come to Camp this weekend, but please do come in 2 weeks. We need to postpone the Service Weekend until May 30 to June 1, 2008. There are too many trenches remaining open for us to be effective. Most of us will be standing around if we try to hold the Service Weekend this weekend. The playfield is covered with piles of sand, so there is no
place to park. The electrical lines are in the trenches, but the trenches have not been backfilled. The waterlines run to only 2 buildings so far, and more water line trenches will be dug this week. We can't do any work on the paths, grounds and road until the trenches are backfilled. Due to the rainy spring and a death in the family of the site work folks, we have not progress as far as we had hoped. It is uncertain how many buildings will have power and water this weekend.

This means that Adult Session will begin 5 days after the Service Weekend - June 6, 2008. It will be a scramble to get everything in order
before Adult Session, so PLEASE come and help in 2 weeks.

If you know someone who is planning to come this weekend, please contact them and tell them to postpone their plans for 2 weeks. I'm very sorry for the late notice, we were hoping that things would come together so we could do the bulk of the work this weekend and still have 2 weeks for mop-up before Adult Session. But, things just didn't happen.

Please come in 2 weeks if only for a few hours. Thank you.
