Rocky Mountain Mennonite Camp

The VISION 2012 Capital Campaign begun in 2001, is a ten year fundraising effort to make program and facility improvements beyond the normal operations of camp.  As the camp operations is covered by funds received from fees, 100% of capital gifts go directly to the long term capital improvements of the camp planned and unplanned (like the surprise septic system project the fall of 2009).

Your tax deductible gift is appreciated to support the current VISION 2012 Campaign: Renewal & Restoration.
