Donate - Angeles Crest

The busy Christmas season is in full swing and you may have already heard “Santa Baby” lyrics asking Santa for a ‘54 convertible, a platinum mine, and a diamond ring a few too many times already.

We’re a little more practical here at Angeles Crest Christian Camp. All we want for Christmas this year is to give a special gift to all the campers and leaders that come up for a great mountain top experience.

In order to do that, we are kicking off an ambitious remodeling project of the North Cabins (you may know it as “girl’s town”).

We currently have approximately 6,500 campers attending camp each year – but our vision is to see 10,000 campers attending camp each year at Angeles Crest.

The number one obstacle to reaching 10,000 campers per year is the lack of bathrooms inside each of the nine cabins in our north area.

We have many groups who take a tour of our facilities but decide not to bring their group because they don’t want to go outside the cabin to the restroom building.

It is the number one improvement that all the leaders write on their evaluations.

Leaders, we hear you!

To kickstart our ambitious goal for the North Cabins, we will begin by remodeling Cabin #4, which is next door to the recently renovated Pines Meeting Room. By doing this remodel, we expect to increase our attendance by another 800-900 campers per year.

Here’s the plan…

We will remodel Cabin #4 into a new Leadership Cabin for youth pastors, church leaders and campers that visit throughout the year at Angeles Crest.

The remodeling plan consists of three different LEVELS:

LEVEL 1:

New bathroom addition including foundation, roof extension, 2 showers, 2 toilets, 4 sinks

Estimated Cost: $68,000

LEVEL 2:

Replace the old siding on Cabin 4 with brand new siding

Estimated Cost: $8,500

LEVEL 3:

Remodel the interior (new mattresses, carpet, beds, paint, etc)

Estimated Cost: $7,500

Our estimated cost for a full remodel of this new Leadership Cabin is $84,000.

This will be a blueprint for the grand plan of remodeling all nine North Cabins in the next 2-3 years. Will you help us get our Christmas wish this year?

Any donation is a blessing to the camp! If you or your group would like to sponsor a level or the entire project, please contact me. Donations covering the full cabin remodel will be honored with a special plaque, and your group will receive priority use of that cabin.

Please join us this Christmas by giving a gift to the incredible leaders that make a huge impact in the lives of the youth throughout Southern California and beyond.

You can donate online at angelescrest.com/donate or by sending in your donation with the enclosed envelope. If you would like your donation to count for the 2024 tax year, have those postmarked by December 31, 2024.

Thank you for your interest in Angeles Crest Christian Camp and for taking the time to read this letter. Oh, and by the way, if anyone wanted to donate a ‘54 convertible or a platinum mine, I’m sure we wouldn’t complain. 😉

Merry Christmas!
