Ridgecrest Summer Camps

Construction Update #1

Posted by Sharon

We’ve finished step one of the construction project! The land has been cleared for the five new cabins. Now all we have to do is build them! Ron, Phil, and I have ordered the materials, taken construction classes, and have gotten our hard hats. We’re ready to build!

Well, I’m glad that’s a joke or else no one would want to sleep in those cabins. We are in the process of finalizing contracts and getting those signed. Once finished, the footers will go up! It won’t be long till we will hear pounding, sawing, and all those construction sounds. Check out the pictures to see the latest view. To see a larger image, click on the picture.

Ground Breaking News

Well, after several months of praying, planning, meeting with contractors, more praying, more planning, and more meetings with contractors, we’ve finally taken it to the next step! As of Wednesday, September 24th, we officially began clearing the land for the new cabins. It is all very exciting but also a little scary at the same time. There’s no turning back now! The leaders of Ridgecrest Summer Camps truly believe this is the direction God is leading us in. We will now have the opportunity and privilege of impacting 400 extra campers between both camps each summer! What an honor! My goal is to give you weekly updates about the construction that may include pictures and short video clips. So please check back regularly!
