WHAT'S NEWSupport Camp Pringle and help the EnvironmentCamp Pringle is partnering with Steel Pacific Recycling to recycle unwanted scraps of metal. We can take any types of metal (steel, aluminum, copper etc) found, for example, in old car parts, chains, lawn mowers, wheel rims, household appliances, BBQs, doors, steel tubing, plumbing, bikes, file cabinets, steel desks or fences. Camp Pringle is running the scrap metal drive for July and August 2010 during which time Steel Pacific will pay the camp higher than market rates. For more details, to coordinate a drop off or to arrange a pick-up please contact Dave Nicolson at 250-857-0444 or d.nic@telus.net 60th ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONWe are celebrating 60 years of lifetime memories at a huge open house taking place on October 9th, 2010. Mark your calendars as this day will include the Official Grand Opening of both new Branter and Spencer buildings as well as a very special surprise event. Come tour the new facilities and see this redeveloped United Church Regional Camp for Vancouver Island. There will be a special dinner – hopefully served in the new dining hall – complete with special performances from campers and staff as well as anecdotal memories from some of the camp alumni. If you have ever been a camper, volunteer, staff or part of a rental group at camp you will want to come up for this event. Tickets for the dinner will go on sale in September.
FREE CAMPERSHIP DRAWCongratulations to Jared Copp, the winner of our Free Campership Draw held on February 14th at the Salmon Kings Family Day hockey game. Thank you to everyone who came by our booth, we had a great time and met some wonderful people. Darryl MacLeod – Executive Director SPRING BREAK CAMP 2010 - CANCELLEDCamp Pringle prides itself on offering safe camping programs for children and youth. It is with great regret that we have determined that due to the major construction taking place at camp over the next year, it would be unadvisable to go ahead with our plans to host our “Under Construction” Spring Break Camp in 2010. Full refunds will be sent to those who have already registered and notices will be sent out to all the churches advising them of our decision. We apologize for anyone inconvenienced by this decision. Darryl MacLeod – Executive Director 2010 CAMP SCHEDULEThe 2010 Camp Pringle schedule has been posted and can be seen here.
