A big thank you to everyone who's given. George has an apartment in Pittsfield and has already moved in. His tools and equipment are in storage and or being moved to various locations to be stored by generous people. George is very grateful to God and the hearts of everyone who thought of him.

Money donated will go towards helping George furnish the apartment and rent payments. Thanks again.

This is an archived page of Lakeside Christian Camp. The camp formerly resided on Richmond Pond in Pittsfield, MA for 40 years. It was permanently closed on April 1, 2020, and sold in December 2020.

The camp property remains but is now owned by another organization. May the memory of all that God did there live on in those who worked, served, attended, and volunteered there for multiple generations.

Update...

George is still without housing. He saw a few more places in the last week, but none of them were affordable.

George continues to move his stuff (with some help) into an onsite storage trailer and the camp owners have agreed to put him up in Wintonbury (next to his house) temporarily. The new owners need to begin working on renovating his house so it's ready by summer for their program.

His realtor is looking at several options for him, but finding something has been hard. George is so thankful for your generosity and the money will help once he finds a place. God Bless.
