  2. Program Expansion for Webelos • Webelos Camps are the single most popular program at Goshen. • They sell out each year. • Key to long-term retention and growth. • Existing Program Gear is showing age. • “ ‘yaks have cracks” • Proposal Assumes: • Maintaining current camps. • Same approach at both camps allowing for customization by staff.

  3. Recommendations • Tier 1 Level – Purchases with focus on long-term maintenance. • Tier 2 Level – Construction Projects • Tier 3 Level – Managerial and Service

  4. Tier 1 – Purchases • 2013 • Telescopes - $4,000 • 2 Dobsonian and 2 Refractors each per camp. (8 total) • Compound Bows - $2,500 (10 per camp) • Kayaks, 10 per camp - $9,000 • Tools for both camps - $4000 • 2014 • Rowboats with oars/locks - $5,000 (phase 1) • 2015 • Return of “The Blob” - $13,000* • Rowboats Phase 2 - $5,000* *Dependency on Tier 2 Construction

  5. Tier 2 Examples

  6. Tier 2 – Construction* • 2013 – Not Feasible • Expand PMI Parking - $4000 • 2014 • Expanded Aquatic Frontage - $75,000 • Theme Area Construction (the “set”) - $60,000 • Additional field areas - $45,000 • Exhanced Shooting Pavilions – Archery - $50,000 2015 • Second Dock - $30,000 • Additional Pavilions (4 total, 2 powered) - $150,000 • Expanded Shooting Pavilions – BBs - $50,000 *rough estimates only – needs better cost analysis

  7. Tier 2 – Construction Notes • 2013 – can a slight mod be made with the team building the spillway to clear additional space at PMI for parking? • Ross needs a permanent archery facility rather than just canopies.

  8. Tier 2 – Construction Notes • Recommend one electrified pavilion at both PMI and Ross to support Nature. • Could include aquariums, cold storage for bait, etc. • Convert existing Nature Pavilion at Ross to other program. • Existing PMI Pavilion could be modified. • Consider Nature next to lake to support fishing program and use the secondary docks proposed.

  9. Tier 2 - Examples

  10. Tier 3 - Managerial • 2013 • Expand waste management contract to include recycling – approx $500 per camp for the season. • Discretionary Income for Camp Staff – improve flexibility to address program needs. $500 per year per camp to start. • 2014 • Expand camp to 7 weeks • Or build a third Webelos Camp • Additional weeks bring in additional revenue • Partnership programs reach whole new sources of revenue and promote staff opportunities
