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.

How Do You Define Mission?
When somebody says “I’m on a mission”, what do you think of? If the word is said in church, what is the first thing that comes to mind? You may think of someone clutching a Bible in a jeep jostling down jungle roads. Or you cold be thinking of a caring staff at an remote…
A Special Request for Baby Vivian
Serving God, while the greatest of blessings, is no guarantee that everything will go well in life. Tragedy, difficulty, and suffering can find any of us at any moment, and when it does, the people of God are essential in helping us navigate the valleys of shadow with Jesus by our side. Ben Gosnell came…
You Can Always Come Home
In the pursuit of mission, I’ve moved around a lot as an adult. To be perfectly honest, I haven’t found a place since Mom and Dad’s house that I felt was mine — a place I could call home. If you find yourself longing for home, you’re in some pretty good company. It says in…

Signs and The Summer Camp High
Some people talk about “The Summer Camp High” as if it’s not real. I have to admit, I did too. It’s an easy target: people come back buzzing with energy and excitement and ready to be really spiritual and maybe even change the world. But by the time school starts again, where has all that…

Reflection on 33 Years of Service
Ken Bontrager has been away from Camp for a few months now enjoying semi-retirement in Florida. He spent a bit of this time happily mowing a golf course while he reflected on his time in New York. Ken will be back with us at Homecoming on September 7. We’ll have a special time to connect…
