Extreme Makeover: Fort Roller Edition

 |
Fort Roller, our camp for youth ages 10-12, has long been in need of a makeover.
Now with Arrowhead Woods up and running at 100% capacity, it is time to make Fort Roller a real fort – complete with new activities, renovated buildings and new facilities. |
Cabin Renovations: Replacement of roof and porch, and new bunks in the cabins.
Cost: $9,000
New Low Ropes Course: A brand new course with exciting new elements to challenge campers of various skill levels.
Cost: $3,500
Fort Roller Pavilion: A covered 60’ x 80’ structure to serve as the central area for meetings, gatherings and rainy day activities.
Cost: $68,000
Stockades, Fencing and Flagpole: Elements that create the atmosphere of an authentic western fort to increase the campers’ experience.
Cost: $10,000
COMPLETION GOAL: SUMMER 2008
Now that we have finished Phase 1 of our Fort Roller Extreme Makeover, it’s time to begin Phase 2: Doc Shaffer’s Office.
This new facility will give Fort Roller a modern health care center that will provide the best possible medical services for RVR campers. We’re ready to roll. With your help, our new health center will be open for the summer of 2008.
Doc Shaffer's Office – Health Center: A new 30’ x 38’ Health Center that will serve both Arrowhead Woods and Fort Roller.
This new facility will be built in memory of Dr. Steven N. Shaffer (1957-2006) who volunteered countless hours and immeasurable service as RVR’s Medical Director. As a Christian, Dr. Shaffer cared about both the physical health and spiritual health of all who came under his care.
Cost: $235,000
