🌿 Camp Cleanup Day – Saturday April 12th, 2025

“The smallest act of service is greater than the grandest intention.” – Oscar Wilde

At Camp because I said I would, we believe in showing up — even when it’s hard work, even when the weather’s not perfect, and especially when the job list is long.

This Saturday, April 12th, from 10 AM to 4 PM, we’re inviting volunteers to lend a hand for our 🌼 Spring Camp Cleanup Day. We’ve got a lot to do — and we need you.


🛠️ What to Expect

Camp cleanup isn’t just about rakes and hammers — it’s about rebuilding a space that helps grieving families heal and exhausted helpers rest. Whether it’s clearing trails, fixing benches, cleaning up around the pond, or sorting supplies, your time here makes camp more ready to serve the people who need it most.


📋 Arrival Info

  • 🅿️ Check-in Location: Head to Parking Lot #2
  • ⏰ Arrival Window: Please arrive between 9:30 AM and 10:00 AM
  • 👟 Dress Code: Be ready for anything — wear protective footwear and weather-appropriate clothing
  • ☔ Rain or Shine: If we can’t get outside, we’ve got plenty of indoor tasks to tackle too!

💪 Who Should Come?

Anyone with a heart to help. Whether you’re handy with tools or just willing to pull weeds or pick up sticks from the recent winds, there’s something here for you. Bring friends, bring family, or come solo — either way, you’ll be surrounded by people who care.


❤️ Why It Matters

This camp is more than just cabins and trails. It’s where grieving families laugh again. Where tired teachers catch their breath. Where pain meets peace and turns into possibility. Every bench you build and bag you carry plays a part in that.
