CC Shiplap Siding
CC Shiplap Siding is Camper Cabin (CC) Siding with Shiplap edges (stair or L-shaped overlapping edges) — a custom Wood Product developed and produced for the ATTB Consturction Project. The product is produced out of Northern White Pine as part of our Forestry Stewardship Program to log out pine in favor of mixed hardwoods. The product is logged by CDP Construction crews and cut on our Woodmizer LT40 Sawmill. Rough planing is done simultaneously with edge-milling by a neighbor on antique milling machines.
Due to durability vs cost considerations, this produce is installed unfinished. We expect 20-40 years of service life with minimal replacement costs in materials (since CDP supplies) and labor (2-3 days work). This is compared to approximately $1200 semi-annually for stains or silicone treatments with not much extension of service life.

What Are You Tapped Into?
Yesterday we began tapping maple trees, officially opening maple syrup making season at Camp Deerpark! Last year, the transition kept us from producing syrup, so it feels great to be back to it. Starting off, however, has been a bit of a challenge since things are pretty arctic around here. The entire ground is covered…
What Does it Mean to be Spirit-Led with Pastor Mark Perri
One small contribution I can make is to share story with you. This could be valuable in several ways: First, I’m coming to the Mennonites from the outside — from non-denominational GenX “simple/ organic/ emergent church“. Sometimes people coming from outside-in have a helpful perspective for those trying to move from inside-out. Second, as an…

Winter: Life Under the Surface
On the surface, winter with its cracking and cold seems like the enemy of life. Everything sleeps as though dead, and Camp — quiet and empty — sits waiting. But under the surface, winter is revealed to be a friend to life, not an enemy. In the deep frost, God opens the soil for Spring’s…

What is A Mission Statement?
On the LMC NYC District call this month, Dr. Tiffany shared critical information on what is and what is not a mission statement.
