Meet WPMC Officers and Identifiers at the second parking lot. The event is free, but cash donations will be collected to assist the camp with its flood repair efforts.

Our original Black Friday walks at Hartwood acres were inspired by the REI  #optoutside initiative. This year it will be held at Camp Guyasuta. Camp Guyasuta experienced extensive damage due to this year’s floods. Three bridges were completely destroyed, and two more were damaged. Many trees were uprooted, and they downed many light poles supplying power. Mud flowed down the hillside and into the swimming pool and shelters. The biggest loss occurred when mudslides shifted ground along the hills. The Camp is partially covered by insurance, but most of the damage was not paid for. Many activities in mid-summer through September had to be canceled.
