PAVING
Due to the gifts of two very generous donors, in May 2021 we were able to do some much needed paving around the camp!
Lower Cabins makeover
New Curtains & Painting of the Lower Cabins happened in the summer of 2020 and makes everything look fresh and new!
Deck skirting was donated by Discovery Baptist Church in Gig Harbor, and the stairs were completely removed and rebuilt.
Sturdy handrails and stairs will assist our campers and guests as they find their cabins during their stay at Gilead.
