In order to fulfill the mission of providing a place of discovery, rest and retreat for all ages, some very important tools are needed. Some of them are needed this year, and some are future developments.
Here is our wish list for 2018:
-
Picnic tables
-
Building Bridges
-
Maintain Trails, Landscaping
-
Organizing and Prepping buildings for summer camp
-
Worthy Camper Fund: Financial donations for this fund will help us provide for those children who would like to come to camp but cannot afford to.
-
Enhancing our Waterfront activities: We are currently looking into bringing inflatable products.
-
Financial donations to replace the current Polaris Rangers all-terrain vehicles, which are the workhorses of our program. These vehicles are now 8 years old and in need of replacement.
If you are interested in being a part of this wonderful mission opportunity or would like to donate for any of these above items and have questions, please call Jamie Daum (630) 856-2860, or email at jdaum@ilcsda.org.
