Dining Hall Renovation Project
In order to preserve our beloved Dining Hall, a staple of functional ministry at Covenant Park, we are taking efforts to upgrade the building for structural integrity and efficiency and wider opportunity for use. We see this happening in 2-3 phases. Phase 1 will include lifting the building in order to put a permanent foundation underneath the building. The building sits in a low area that collects several inches of water during the spring and after heavy rain. We have seen concerning amounts of shifting in the foundational blocks the building currently sits on. The permanent foundation will solidify the building and provide better drainage so the building isn't compromised with the moisture. This phase will also include new decks and ramps, disconnecting and reconnecting of utilities as a result of the lift, and rebuilding the fireplace. We are also prepared for other small maintenance needs to arise as a result of moving the building and resetting it higher than it currently is now. This phase has an estimated budget of $250,000-300,000. The goal is to be fully funded by Fall 2025 and start construction with completion of phase 1 by the 2026 camp season.
The next phase(s) will take place following. Plans are still big picture with thoughts to winterize the building and do some kitchen upgrades.
We invite you to partner with us financially and through prayer as we trust God to provide for this big need! We are blessed to announce that the first $65,000 will be matched.
