Goal Reached: The Challenge Course Will Soar Again

Because of the generosity of the Camp Community, we are thrilled to share the exciting news that we have officially reached our fundraising goal to complete critical repairs to the dual zip line and flying squirrel!

This project includes essential upgrades identified through a professional inspection, such as replacing hundreds of feet of wire rope on the dual zip line, repairing structural damage to the flying squirrel, and enhancing safety systems throughout the course.

We are especially grateful to Lee Smith, Betsy Smith-Stierwalt, and Kate Perek, whose generous match of the first $2,000 in gifts helped build early momentum and inspire others to give. Their leadership, combined with the support of so many donors, made this success possible.

The Challenge Course is more than just an activity; it’s where campers discover their strength, face their fears, and celebrate each other’s successes. It is where lifelong confidence is built in a single, unforgettable moment.

Thank you for helping us keep adventure alive at Camp Ondessonk. Your support ensures that future campers will climb higher, swing farther, and leave Camp with stories and confidence that last a lifetime.
