Projects -- What's New at Oneida

We are constantly upgrading Oneida's facilities and have multiple projects underway. Here's what we are working on right now.

  Project Status
  Dining Hall Retreat Center In Progress
  New Sleeping Cabin Nearing Completion
  Nurses Cabin Building Spring 2011
  Permanent Trail Bridge Not Started

Dining Hall Retreat Centre

Our main project for the past few years has been our Dining Hall.

Dining Hall

Main construction was completed in Spring 2002 and was put into service in Summer 2002. The upper interior has been completed except for a fireplace. The kitchen island has also been rebuilt. We will begin building bedrooms downstairs to provide a facility that can be used year-round, in the near future.

Thanks to a generous donation, the basement washroom facilities were built in 2008.

We currently wish to rent this building as a retreat center but requires a fire monitoring system, and a larger water cistern.

New Sleeping Cabin

Our original craft cabin (located next to Field House) has been converted into a winterized cabin to be used for summer camps and year-round.

New Cabin

This cabin includes 4 rooms with a total of 10 bunks, plus future washroom facilities. This building is available for rent from May to October.

Nurse's Cabin

Camp Committee approved the building of our new nurses cabin, construction to start in April 2011.

It will be built in front of the existing nurse's cabin and be winterized to be used by other groups throughout the year.

Creek Bridge

We hope to start building a better bridge over the creek to complete the nature and bike trails. A temporary bridge has been in place since 2003 but continues to get washed out every year. It also blocks the creek from canoeing past it. Our temporary solution is to build a draw bridge.

Donate to Oneida
