There are poorly sited elements within the camp

Siting of the Troop House

The siting of this buildings within the camp is an issue. Watershed and drainage runs into or near the foundations of major structural elements, posing a potential damage.

Siting of the Trading Post

The siting of this buildings within the camp is an issue. Watershed and drainage runs into or near the foundations of major structural elements, posing a potential damage.

There are activities that are inactive due to conditons within site

Empty Stables and Indoor Arena

Due to an expansion in the Winding River Girl Scouts Camp the horses on this camp were moved to that site. They left behind sound structures that can still facilitate horses. Horseback riding is on the top 4 desired amenities of a summer camp as defined by a Girl Scout survey taken in 2009.

Pool Structural Problems Render It Useless

The pool is currently situated in a natural water drainage plane where run off from the hill runs through. The ground underneath the concrete is currently moving downhill and taking the pool with it. There is large cracks in the bottom of the pool that make operation of this entity very expensive to run.

Lake To Shallow To Sustain Any Acitivies

The siting of this buildings within the camp is an issue. Watershed and drainage runs into or near the foundations of major structural elements, posing a potential damage.

There Is An Unsustainable Lake

DAM THAT HOLDS LAKE TOGETHER IS IN SEVERE DISREPAIR

The siting of this buildings within the camp is an issue. Watershed and drainage runs into or near the foundations of major structural elements, posing a potential damage.

POSSIBLE SOLUTION

Dredging

High maintenance cost ($300,000)

Maintenance will have to be repeated in the future

Nature will keep trying to destroy foreign element in landscape

Can destroy natural ecosystems in the lake and surrounding environment

Health consequences in what is dug up

What to do with sludge from bottom?

POSSIBLE SOLUTION

Underground Infrastructure

High up front cost High maintenance cost/ Maintenance intensive Environmental impact of carving into the hills What to do with all the sludge?

POSSIBLE SOLUTION

Collection Ponds

Hill to steep to collect sludge

Effect on camp due to additional ponds

Maintenance intensive

What to do with sludge?

POSSIBLE SOLUTION

Restore To Natural Condition

Restoring the site back to its natural environment will take an investment that in the future it will pay itself. Allowing the site to naturally deal with the water runoff will create no maintenance issues down the road.

Budget does not allow a smooth transition from old to new.

No realistic timeline to completion of master plan.

Phasing Indoor Arena Area

?Other than bringing the horses back what other activities can we facilitate?

Other parts of the camp are well utilized

Camp Circulation And Connection

$Current camp circulation Proposed camp circulation

Bioswale CorridorBy removing the lake we are also removing the main identity of the camp. The bioswale will become the new identity of the camp as it will run through out the whole camp. It will be used as the main pedestrian path that connects the amenities on site.

Bioswell

Tall Grass

Trail

Tree Line

Tree Line

Trail Over Water

Bioswale CorridorThe bioswales primary objective is to filtrate and remove water from site. The bioswale will carry the water run off through our site and naturally allow it to dissipate. In its worst case scenario the bioswale would be unusable as a pedestrian path. However it will not be damaged as it is designed to flood and allow water to seep into the land.

Bioswell

Tall Grass

Bioswale CorridorAt the lowest point of the site the bioswale can serve as an as-set to help the camp self-sustain. By placing a catch basin that further filtrates the runoff water, the camp can utilize the water to water the animals, vegetable plants, and landscape.

Vegetable Garden

Grow your own food!The vegetable garden could not only be a source of food of the camp but it can be a hands on learning experience. The girls would be able to learn how to plant and grow vegetables, but they would be able to pick the vegetables they helped take care of and create a healthy meal from them.

How to get starteda. Setting up a vegetable garden is not as hard as it sounds. You just need wood to create the planters, newspaper, hay and manure, which could all be found on site. Once you have a base of newspaper, hay, manure, hay, fertilizer you are ready to start planting. b. Maintaining the garden is also not a difficult task. There is a little weeding and watering, which the irrigation system from the rain water collection could help with.
