Brush Creek recently had a work week. The following is information from Brush Creek Board President Dale Warren.

We had some 50 people present on two of the work days. We had rain on Tuesday and again on Thursday and Friday. It was a time of great fellowship, work, and sharing together. We had wonderful meals served each day.

We are sure campers next year at reunions and youth camps will appreciate and enjoy the great volunteer work and donated materials that was used in re-furbishing and upgrading the campground. It's a labor of love. What a joy to be involved in such a precious work. Thanks to everyone for your great contribution to historic Brush Creek.
