STAFF LOUNGE PROJECT

Right now we are raising money to build a staff lounge. For the past few summers, the staff have not had an adequate place to gather socially. The alumni understand the importance for staff members to have a space where they can learn and interact with peers who are like and unlike themselves. That’s why we’ve made it a priority to raise money for this project.

At the reunion in October, The Alumni Projects Committee was formed to begin the Staff Lounge Project. Led by John Ringwald, and consisting of Larry Hutchins, Eric Benner, Eliza Jones, and Mary Torpey, the Committee wrote a proposal which was signed by reunion attendees who believe in this project. Alumni donated cash and checks, and wrote pledges towards the lounge construction. This proposal was accepted by Rufus Miller, Executive Director of Camps and Conferences and the plan is to begin construction Spring 2007! An excerpt of the proposal is included below.

If you would like to donate to the Staff Lounge Project, please make checks payable to Camp Arrowhead and send to Debbie Simms/Camp Arrowhead, PO Box 625, Lewes, DE 19958. Note: please write “Staff Lounge” on the memo line. Thanks in advance for your support of this important project!
