Final Total: $ 56,965
We reached our goal of $40,000 AND surpassed it because of the generosity of our supporters. The Camp Bountiful Board of Directors say THANK YOU! We continue to receive donations for the campaign, therefore the total will be updated every few days. We also extend a very special thank you to those that kicked off this campaign with $20,000 in matching funds.
Officially our campaign has ended, but if you want to join others in supporting Camp Bountiful by replenishing our operating funds, please designate on your check or PayPal that it is for “fundraising campaign”.

2021 Camp Bountiful Camps
After consultation with several people, including the CB Board chair,
former camp directors and others, Candy and I have come to the decision
that we will cancel all Community of Christ summer camps for 2021.
The decision was not made lightly, but a combination of issues,
including distancing, ventilation of sleeping quarters, sanitation
requirements, dining concerns, safety with programs, availability of
directors and staff, medical personnel, and other factors as identified
by the American Camping Association and Center for Disease Control made
cancellation the safest choice at this time. Decisions regarding fall
retreats will be made sometime during the summer.
We expect a decision on Spec to be made in May.
We realize the graduating seniors from 2020 and 2021 will have missed
their last opportunity to participate in Sr Hi camp. We hope to find a
way for a gathering for them once it is safe to meet again.
Blessings,
Vern Foster, WOMCP

Gratitude for Lodge Updates
We thank our skilled volunteers who worked in the lodge on extending the railings in the loft areas. It was quite a project with many different talents needed and lots of planning. The lofts are now ready for camping season to open again. We rely on volunteers to make Camp Bountiful the awesome campground that we love so much.
COVID-19 Updates
Camp Bountiful Board along with the First Presidency of the Community of Christ church continue to monitor State of Ohio guidelines and recommendations from professional health organizations about preventing the spread of COVID-19. Based on this information we have suspended gatherings at Camp Bountiful. We look forward to seeing you again as soon as it is possible.
Decisions for the 2021 camping season have not been made yet. We continue to monitor the situation and keep in close communication with the world church.
