At some point this past summer, the Shetek Lutheran Camp suffered a broken pipe and resulting water leakage. It took some time and expense to identify the problem and find the broken pipe. The Camp and the Murray County Foundation collaborate on various youth development programs such as winter recreation and Ecology and Environment Camp. The Foundation Board decided to help the Camp with a $1,000 grant. Foundation Vice President, Judy LaBoda, presented the award to Camp Director and noted that: “The Camp is a valued asset in Murray County. It is also a positive force for youth development and environmental education in the community.” The Camp is still in need of funds for costs associated with the damage, so others are invited to help by contacting the Camp.
