Cabin Project


Now that the summer has come to an end and the business of September is over the camp is beginning to feel like it did when we first moved out here in December. The only thing that is different is Troy is now really busy with the cabin projects. In September all the ground work happened and the foundations for the cabins were poured. They had a concrete truck come for an afternoon and a crew of guys took wheelbarrow after wheelbarrow of concrete and poured them into the sono tubes.

 Over the last two weeks the trenching of the utilities have been going on, Liam is in awe with watching what he calls “big big digger” I have also been calling it the big digger and was informed that the proper name of the “digger” is track hoe. Now I am trying to do my best at calling it the proper name so the kids learn the right names of the equipment.  There is still a ways to go with the cabin project in terms of building them and getting enough donations of money, time and materials to make the rest of the project happen on time. If you are interested in donating to this project in any way email Troy at maintenance@frontierlodge.ca to get more information on how you can help.

 We have been blessed by Art who has donated his time and skills to help trench in the utilities
 
A prayer request for this project would be for Troy and the guys who are working on them that they don’t get discouraged during the project. Lots of things can come up in ministry projects like this to cause them to take a bit longer than expected. We are still praying for more money and donations of materials to come in for the cabins.
