Looking for a way to serve at Camp Cowen?
In this unique time when we do not have campers at camp, God has provided us the perfect opportunity to improve areas of camp for the return of camping onsite! Adopt-a-Cabin or area of camp for your family or church group to take care of with cleaning, general repairs, painting and small improvements.
How does it work?
- Along with your group, church or family, pick a cabin or other area of camp that you’d like to work on.
- Contact the camp to let them know which area you’re interested in working on and schedule your work party.
- Use the list of items needed for the projects to purchase and bring with you (download list here).
- Bring supplies to camp and be a blessing!
