Camp EE Project: COMPLETED
I wanted to share some additional information regarding the facility upgrades at the Double EE Girl Scout camp over the last fall and spring. This project was completed with well over 300 volunteer hours on the part of the Kiwanis’s, Lions and Rotary club members.
In the fall, the two kitchens were demolished and removed from the cabins. Evergreen Construction provided a dump truck for transport off the location. The cabins, which are built of cement block, had been partially painted. Primer and top coat were applied to the walls of both cabins and repainted. In addition the plaster board ceiling in the larger cabin was taped, plastered and painted. With painting completed, the Kiwanis installed new cabinets in both cabins, as well as installing a new door to the Hamann cabin. A door was blocked in the kitchen, allowing for a more functional space. The gazebo has been repaired and will be painted.
Big thanks to Shumann Electric, who moved the electric pole from the middle of the parking lot and cleaning up electrical lines. Custom Tree Cutters trimmed trees and did a great job of cleaning up the area of downed limbs. Other vendors on the project were Mark II Lumber and Sherwin Williams.
Again, thanks to all who worked for the benefit of the young people of Emporia and the surrounding area.
Respectfully,
Barbara Wry
