Volunteers Build Cabins At Camp Conger
In North Fairfield volunteers from the Busy Needles 4-H Club and county agents oversaw two new cabins at Camp Conger near Monroeville. The 18 by 32 foot structures, each housing 22 campers and two counselors, were built with about $1,000 each and funded by a 4-H fund drive totaling around $4,300. The project adds to four years of camp renovations as restrooms and a dining hall expansion continue. Camp Conger will host 4-H sessions July 6 and 13 and welcomes church groups and the Monroeville High School band.
