We’re excited to share another Lodge Project update as winter settles in at camp. Over the past month, significant progress has been made on the foundation for the Hutch. Foundation footings were formed and poured, followed by the installation of frost walls and weatherproofing. The surrounding area has since been backfilled, preparing the site for the next stage of construction.
The completed foundation will house essential mechanical equipment and serve as an additional emergency gathering space for campers and staff during extreme weather events, such as microbursts or tornadoes. This addition strengthens our emergency action plan and enhances overall preparedness.
Lumber and other materials have begun arriving on-site, and framing is scheduled to begin in the new year. We look forward to sharing continued updates as the Hutch, wraparound porch, and lodge extension take shape in the coming months.
This project is being thoughtfully carried out by our trusted partners at Hardypond Construction and Simons Architects, and we’re grateful for their continued collaboration.
