Calvin Crest is raising funds to build a new swimming pool. The goal is to begin construction in 2008.
Why build a new swimming pool? Our current pool was built in the early 1960's. It has been a great pool but with increasing attendance at camps, conferences, retreats and other events we need a pool with more capacity, that is handicapped accessible, operates more efficiently to save money, has lights for night swims, recreation activities and will serve our guests for the next generation.
It will feature bath houses for women and men with showers and restroom facilities in a heated, nicely appointed building. New water recreation elements can be added in the future.
The Calvin Crest Board of Directors has developed a fundraising plan that includes hiring a grant writer to raise a portion of the funds and appointing a fundraising task force to raise the remainder. We need your help. We have already raised nearly $259,000 in cash and need to raise another $587,000 to complete the project. This is a significant improvement to Calvin Crest's mission that will leave a lasting legacy for youth and adults of all ages for many years.
