Equipping for the future!

As we look back upon 2020, we can say that it has been a challenging year in many ways. No summer camps. No guest groups. A year unlike any Pioneer has ever experienced before. And yet, we look toward 2021 with a sense of expectation and purpose as we plan and prepare for the future. For a time when guests and campers will be welcomed back to our Pioneer Lodge, Sundre and our Pioneer Ranch, Rocky Mountain House sites.

The operation of a camp requires many pieces of equipment, from the large to the very small. And they all add up. There are many departmental needs that you can contribute towards that will help equip Pioneer for the future in the areas of hospitality, food services, maintenance and barns.
