Camp Freeland Leslie

At the Spring 2009 Fellowship held at Camp Freeland Leslie, we completed the furniture project by staining/sealing the furniture. We also did work on the new dining pavilion, connecting drains and moving tons of sand & gravel to complete the new pavilion! Many THANKS to all who gave their time to do Cheerful Service for our camp!

In March 2009 a new staff dining pavilion was constructed near the Staff Kitchen. View photos of the construction.

I would like to take the opportunity to thank the following people for helping build the furniture for the Pavilion at CFL: Amanda Buck, Andrew Lea, Anthony Roder, Bill Newkirk, Brad Wojo, Brian Buri, Bruce Schroer, Charles Cassin, Chris Hirsig, Christopher Roder,  Dan Wilson, Dave Poirier, Diane Buri, Dwight Cannon, Ed Salutric, Frankie Casas, Fred Roder, Jack Kohlmetz, Jeff O'Rourke, Jim Lea, Joe Buri, Joe Cassin, John Picchietti, Josh Greiner, Marc Nenia, Mark Wandtke, Matt Ackerman, Mike Buck, Mike Hird, Mike Jach, Mike Koehne, Mike Meyer, Mike Scheve, Nicholas Lea, R. Michael Johnson, Randy Anderson, Rick Lea, Rick Stewart, Sandra Lea, Steve Wandtke, Tim Greiner, Tim Tyler, Tyler Olson, Walt Schalk, & Zach Knoch.

 

There is no way that we could accomplish this project without the help of these dedicated scouters.  The scouts who attend Camp Freeland Leslie will enjoy and benefit from this furniture for years to come. In all we produced 205 benches and 52 tables, and we did this faster than I thought was possible!  It was great that we completed the project on Saturday and could focus on cleaning and organizing on Sunday. I would also like to thank Jim and Rick Lea for allowing us to use the Victory Movers Inc. warehouse for this project.  Without the great facility to work in, there is no way we would have been able to accomplish so much. Again, please accept my profound thanks. - Steve Wandtke
