Help Rehabilitate BB Camp’s Tripper Shack
Our wilderness program is at the heart of everything we do. For campers to feel comfortable, safe, and cared for in the woods, they need adequate, well maintained equipment. For us to be able to maintain and store equipment properly, our 90-year-old tripper shack needs some TLC.
The Tripper Shack is one of the most iconic buildings on camp. Every camper and staff who has been to BB Camp in the last 70 years has used the tripper shack and it’s time we gave it the much needed love it deserves. As a heritage building we’re not looking to tear it down or change it much, just give it some new siding, a new roof, reinforce the structure, build more storage inside, a small addition so that each cabin will have their own lockers to store their gear, and a rooftop deck to hang tents to dry.
The interior of the building will be largely unchanged. The names on the walls, LTP plaques in the upshack, and old mementos will be untouched. We want to ensure the Tripper Shack lasts another 90 years and are hoping to raise $350,000 to get us there. All donations, no matter the size will be honoured on a donor wall affixed to the building's addition.
Thank you for your support!
