April Service Project
New Deck for BSA Camp Fire Mountain
Our club normally does two service projects a year at our local Scout Council's Fire Mountain Camp east of Big Lake in Skagit County.
Plans are in the works for a major addition to the camp's dining hall, but it could be 5 years out. In the mean time, the deck was deteriorating and becoming a hazard and needed to be replaced with something to last at least 5 years.
On April 29 Rotarians and some family members started the deck replacement project. Matt Rolf, Lyanne's Rolf's husband, and Lyanne's father in law did the planning and supervised the job.

Of Course There Was a Lunch Break
Our club is not the only area Rotary Club doing a project at Camp. The Rotary Club of Maryville has taken on the project of financing
and build staff cabins. Marysville Rotarians were working on Saturday as well. 
Marysville's Staff Cabin Project
Previous camp projects for out club have included building camp shelters in three of the campsites, building a swim and swing platform at the swim beach, and various smaller projects.
The deck project was not completed on Saturday and will require a return of a work project to finish the job.
There are more photos of the project in the album section of this website.
