Goodbye Depot


The old depot is no more.

Here are a few photos of the demolition of the trail depot/shop building earlier this week. They were taken by Camp Director Mat Klachefsky.

Mat says the plans for the new building aren't available just yet.

"I can tell you the new design is going to feel pretty familiar," he says. "A lot of the bold ideas that were being thrown around were abandoned in favour of something simpler."

A new depot has been in the works for about three years as the old building, known as the boathouse when it was built in 1966, was becoming overcrowded and no longer suitable for today's standards.

A new shop building was built between the dining hall and wellness centre about a year ago.









Here are three close-up photos of the old depot I took a year ago. . .











. . . and some more I've collected over the years.
