YMCA Camp Campbell - Not a Typical Project
Posted by Josh Burroughs on Wed, Mar 17, 2010 @ 11:30 PM
Here's an interesting twist on Bay Area Real Estate that only occurs up in the mountains! Check out the info below from our community partners at the YMCA.
Located in Boulder Creek California, YMCA Camp Campbell is nestled in the Santa Cruz Mountainsand surrounded by the redwood forest. One highlight of the renovation project is construction of a new 9000sf Dining Lodge facility.
The new Lodge facility is being made up of 18”-24” diameter western red cedar logs. Each log is hand carved and systematically stacked creating a large “Log Cabin” type building. While the entire log structure is being pre-fabricated by Pioneer Log Homes in Williams Lake BC, foundations at the site are simultaneously being built and will be completed to receive the log package in April 2010.
Once the log package arrives onsite it will take (2) weeks to reassemble the structure onto its new permanent foundation. It’s at this point the delicate dance of site logistics will begin. This includes safety, material and equipment staging, crane access, and camp staff coordination as campers will be in session!!
