Permits have been issued

We have received the permits for the Kamp Kipa Lodge and staff house. We recently received about a foot of snow so we will have to wait until Spring to get started.

We have made great progress with the rented trac-hoe, our dozer and a back-hoe, plus the diligent, skillful, full time efforts of three men. The road has been improved from the saddle (forrest service road), all the way to a much expanded cul-de-sac at the lodge, plus water lines installed to the baths, 4 septic tanks into the ground, and gutted bath houses. One bath has most of its new roof, the other is weather tight.

The fundraising has started and we have a loan offer from a bank. The sun is shinning, the birds are singing; we have a good and gracious God.
