CAMP BOARD - January 15, 2009 - Leamersville GBC

The Camp Board meeting is changed to January 15.  The location stays the same.  We will be discussing the new building plans and the 2009 budget.

OVER $50,000! RAISED AT THE ANNUAL DINNER!

Over $25,000 was given and pledged at the Annual Dinner this year.  An anonymous matching gift was also provided giving us a total of $50,000 of the total of $100 GRAND ($100,000) to finish the new building project.  We are 2/3 of the way there with over $100,000 raised for the building so far...We only have a 1/3 to go.  ($50,000).

NEW MULTIPURPOSE BUILDING TO BE BUILT THIS SPRING...GROUNDBREAKING SOON!

A new multi-purpose building is to be built in front of the gym this Spring.  We are hoping to complete the building for summer camp but that will depend on a good Spring.  We are awaiting final approval of permits by the end of the year.  We would love to complete this project DEBT FREE....We have a goal of $100,000 by the end of 2009.  $50,000+ has been raised toward this goal.  (Previously $50,000 was raised.)  The total building should cost $150,000.  We have $50,000 yet to raise in order to build this facility DEBT FREE!!  The new building will include a dining area.  The building will have an open feel with a high ceiling and lots of windows.  (We would love to have a wood interior ceiling if the funds are available.)  Please remember we still need general fund giving to meet our regular budget needs to continue our camping program each week throughout the year.  God's people have rallied with us this year.  These are exciting days at Camp Mantowagan.  We had one of our best years of spiritual decisions this past summer in 30+ years of ministry, and it was one of our best years financially even with a slow economy.  God has blessed.
