The Harrison House renovations continue!

Harrison renovations are in full swing – we are starting to accommodate for a new elevator amongst many other projects!

Breaking ground at Camp Caleb Basecamp – we have started progress at the Camp Caleb bathhouse, which will serve our youth programs and senior staff this summer!

Harrison House renovations are uncovering treasures like historic wood floors, an open floor plan in the Johnson Room, and original brick!

Today was an exciting day – our construction contractors officially started work on our Harrison renovations!

Warm weather + energetic Spring Break Service Project volunteers = perfect conditions to prep Camp Caleb Basecamp for its new bathhouse!

It’s “anchors aweigh” at the Harrison House as midshipmen from the Naval Academy have finished moving its furniture into storage!

No one does moving day better than military servicemembers – which is why we asked these cadets and midshipmen to help get Harrison House renovation-ready this week! About 30 volunteers from USCGA, USMA, and Norwich University spent their Spring Break moving Harrison House’s furniture into storage for the upcoming months.
