The mission of Camp Koolaree:
to provide a camp experience in a safe, sustainable and natural setting
and to foster a deeper individual connection
to Community, Creation and the Creator among campers and staff.
To keep Camp Koolaree in good, safe order, we have made significant upgrades to the kitchen/dining hall, which had been in place since the camp’s beginning but was just worn out!
Similarly, the Washhouse required upgrading.
Both projects were supported by the Pacific Mountain Region of the United Church and contributions from local businesses, organizations, governments, and individuals.
We still owe a substantial amount on the construction loan, and we appeal to you for your contributions to the necessary renovations.
Farewell to the Dining Hall!
