A Landscape Trailer, a Pool Robot and Two Stoves

Equipment bought outright for camp in 2022 — the largest share of the year's spending went straight into things the ranger and the program could use.

Two thirds of everything Friends of Camp Mack spent in 2022 went directly to Camp Mack as material donations. Not overhead, not events — equipment the camp needed and did not have.

What was bought

  • A landscape trailer for the ranger, to move the mower and landscape equipment around the property
  • A robotic pool vacuum
  • Two gas-powered stoves, purchased ahead of the lodge kitchen project
  • Various tools and supplies for the ranger’s shop
  • Enough ice cream from Fox Meadows Creamery to last the camp staff all summer

The two stoves were the organization’s opening contribution to a larger effort with the Pennsylvania Dutch Council to replace the ageing kitchen equipment in the Dellinger, Blair and Esbenshade lodges — the three buildings units use most in winter, and which had not been updated in decades.
