Capital Priorities - $1,000,000
It is critical that Four Winds * Westward Ho replace or renovate both program space and housing.

design of camp.

 

Below are the current camp structures needed to be renovated or rebuilt,
and supported by this campaign.

Tanks
Water System Improvements - $220,000

Much of camp’s water system is 40 years old and deteriorating. Buried waterlines that carry water from the tanks to the shower houses are leaking. Hire a water engineering firm to study the water and sanitation system from the wells, pumps, and tanks to the distribution points and make recommendations regarding comprehensive, long-term improvements. Implement changes to secure the future of this vital part of camp’s infrastructure.  

Craft Courts - $435,000

Rebuild the crafts courts to expand and improve the art space. This space is used continually during the summer and must be replaced to ensure quality programming. Add exhibition areas and a museum for historical artifacts and donor recognition.  Program areas to be included in the new space - woodworking, pottery, fiber arts, general arts, open classroom space, and archival and exhibit space


The new craft courts are a breath of fresh air for camp. They have
given camp a truly remarkable place to create art and to teach
kids in an environment that is created for that sole purpose.
– Charlie Crebs, Head of Craft Courts, Summer 2007

further strengthen our financial foundation and enable us to
sustain the Four Winds gypsy magic.
