A few pics and updates from this past weekend’s work day. We had a lower than usual turnout so we weren’t able to accomplish everything planned but we did get the cabins cleaned, leaves raked, and basement cleaned out (thanks Lily!). We had a nice lunch from our hosts and for those able to stay late, a very good dinner and conversations too.

The winter ice buildup caused our swim dock to move which required a lot of time to fix. Boats are out but the dock still needs to be set up and no swimming until the floats can be placed.

We were able to finish the last of the emergency repairs for our insurance review with railings now in place. Great to see a couple of very enthusiastic applicants chip in and help.

If you have not yet volunteered, there’s still work to do, just ask Dave  for a list of where you can help. Until then we can at least enjoy the lake from a distance.

Marty reports:

An awesome effort from everyone who stepped in to help with repairs to our camp Sunday. Thank you Brian, Carl, Linda, Denis, Richard, Bill, Lillian, Jason, Jeff, Laura, Rebecca, and Herman for helping your Camp Nawakwa community. If I forgot a name I’m sorry! We even had a prospective member stop by and I think we’ll see Wilson applying to camp soon.

You were able to address the two largest and most challenging items for our insurance renewal – the concrete bottom step at the main lodge and the drop-off at cabin 6 (each with a gravel landing requiring lots of trips to the rock pile and back). Both look amazing. You also were able to address two additional buildings, and tick off most of the Assessment for the missing/broken slat plan. Of course, kudos to the trail clearing and cabin effort too!

All that’s left to complete by 5/15 – three railings and one stair riser. Please join if you can for the next work effort.

It was great to see the volunteers come together for the benefit of the entire community.
