Another Duffield Work Day in July

You will be happy to note in your calendar that July 12th has been set aside as another fun work day at The Duffield Camp and Retreat Center (from 8 to 4pm).

We will be looking for individuals and teams that would like to learn how to improve trails, cut back overhanging branches, identify flora and fauna, paint the back room of craft lodge and steps at Keeler , scrub out Janeway, the kitchen has been done, cut down trees, haul trees to cutting and splitting area, cut up logs, split same, stack firewood, set some telephone poles, take a swim, dine at Janeway and go home knowing that you have accomplished something during the day.

To allow the courtesy of figuring out how many hamburgers to make please drop Chet Seymour (Chet.Seymour@campDuffield.org) an e-mail or a call.

Yours for a great 4th of July and a dynamic 12th

All are welcome to come and help out.
