Brief Camp Update: the Camp Committee met today however the IDPH has not issued detailed Phase 4 guidelines yet for bars, restaurants, and pools so we will be meeting Sunday June 28 to review (if they've been issued) and determine what, if anything makes sense.
The big parking lot has been a huge issue. The extremely wet May, along with changing underground springs has created a quagmire in some sections. B&G did some research in the swampy areas and found that decades ago when the big parking lot was created (or probably enlarged), a lot of ash was used to fill in the low areas. The ash was laid on top of the original clay, which results in the perfect mushy swamp when water accumulates. B&G has a plan to remove and replace the ash with appropriate material over the rest of the summer.
It has been noted that many of the youth are out enjoying camp, which is awesome. However parents need to keep tabs on their kids to avoid them getting into things or worse yet getting hurt.
Watch this spot for a further update hopefully next weekend.
Gut Heil!  (Originally posted on the Facebook pages June 20, 2020)
The camp committee will be meeting this Sunday morning to consider what activities can be held in some way under Phase 4 during the remainder of the season.  An update will be provided on the Facebook pages, the District website, and the next bulletin. Thank you, Scott Lau
