One of the New Skills we’re adding this summer is digital photography! It’s been talked about for a few years and is finally here. No need to bring your own camera to this skill, we’re providing it for you. The picture shows the type of camera you’ll be using in this skill (and some of the accessories). You’ll learn how to make good pictures great! It’s well on the way to becoming a favorite (judging by skill sheets already returned to the office). So sign up today before all the spots are filled!

Still More Construction

Posted by Karah

Did you think all the construction for the summer was finished? Well, not quite yet. We still have a few minor things left to build before the summer gets underway. One of those projects is a NEW ZIPLINE TOWER! The blob tower is new (2007 anyway) and we thought it only fair to rebuild the zipline tower. Check out the progress so far:

Keep checking back because you never know what will get built next!

Video Tours of New Buildings

Posted by Karah

Hopefully you’ve been keeping up with the posts on the new cabins, Bear Trap and dining hall. You’ve seen the latest pictures and are up to date on the news. Well, now we wanted to give you a 360 video tour of the buildings. The first clip is one of the new camper cabins. Everything is done, now it’s just waiting to be used by campers and staff.

The next couple clips are of the Bear Trap. The first one shows the downstairs offices. There’s a lot more organizing that’ll be done (both downstairs and upstairs) before everyone arrives, but you’ll get a feel for the place from the videos. During the summer, campers and staff can go in and out as needed on the this floor.

This shows the upstairs on the Bear Trap. It’ll house the staff lounge and VD office and because of that, only staff will be allowed upstairs during the summer.

And finally, a short clip of the dining hall with its new floor. It’ll look much different in a few short weeks. All of the tables and chairs will be moved back inside ready for mealtimes.

For those of you new to Crestridge, hopefully this will help you feel more familiar with the place on opening day. For you returning campers, I hope this makes you even more excited to be at Crestridge this summer!

A Face Lift for the Dining Hall

Posted by Karah

That’s a nice front view of the new porch addition to the dining hall. Since we’ve added more campers and staff we needed more space in the dining hall. So during the off season we knocked out walls and added the porch area. But that’s not all being done to the dining hall! We figured this was a great year to refinish the floors. All the tables, chairs and other miscellaneous items have been moved into the kitchen so the job could get done. So far, the workers have only sanded the floor, but it looks like new already! Take a look for yourself:

Moving Into the Bear Trap

Posted by Karah

During the work weekend furniture was moved from the dining hall to the Bear Trap. This is just one more thing telling us that summer is almost here! I took some pictures (because now we take pictures of pretty much everything) of how the building looks with furniture in it. Here’s a look at the downstairs offices:
