Needs at Camp


Horse Program

​Horses  We will need three to five new horses to start a consistent lesson programing for our riding stables.  
Cost for each horse is approximately $2,000

Run In’s  Having run-in’s in our pastures will help us care for and provide better shelter for our horses.  As well, a place for the horses to come get their food. 
Cost for these are between $1,500 and $3,000 depending on size


Running Water Lines Out to Our Pastures  This will allow horses fresh water out in the pastures. Our goal is to have then in our two closest pastures to the horse barn in the next two years.
Approximate cost is $3,000 per pasture


New Fencing for Two Pastures  Supplies would be 4x4 posts, high-tinsel wire, and the supplies to do the job.  
Approximate cost is $3,500

Pavilion Structure to cover Riding Arena  Our goal is to be able to offer lessons and increase the use of our horse program in the next 1 – 3 years with our local community.  Thus allowing us an opening to share the story of Jesus.  
Cost for the structure is approximately $75,000 to cover it and $150,000 to enclose the arena for year-round use.

Summer Camp 
​
Gift Cards  Gift cards to Office Depot, Amazon.com, Tractor Supply Company, and Home Depot work great for camp. Amounts of $25, $50, $100 can go a long way in helping with stocking the camp with the proper things to make smiles on campers faces.

Riding Helmets  Each year we purchase 10 new helmets for our Horse Program. A gift of $300 would cover this investment of 10 helmets.

Crafting  Arts and Crafts is a favorite spot for our campers.  A gift of $500 would help us purchase most of our crafting supplies for 2018.

Lighting  500W LED lights for the front activity field to light up at night. This will allow us to have activities into early evening. Each light is $299 and we will need 8 lights plus installation. Full project cost is $3,500
​

New Personal Flotation Devices (AKA life preservers)
Just like riding helmets we replace these each year, in a seven year cycle.  Cost per PFD is about $25 each.  $250 for 10.
​Facility Upgrades

LED Conversion  Sponsor a room to help us save costs to our utilities. We are currently replacing our fluorescent lights in our dorms with LED tubes. Sponsor one room or one dorm. A small room conversion is $300 and a large room conversion is $500.

Capital Investment Items

Climbing Wall  To add to our outdoor adventure program and summer camp program a climbing wall would really help our programming choices for all campers that come to MCYC of all ages.  Estimated cost is $40,000

Leap of Faith Teambuilding Event  Imagine standing 20 feet off the ground and jumping for a trapeze as your team belays you below!  Estimated cost is $6,500

Flying Squirrel Teambuilding Event  Individuals gain greater confidence, better communication skills and a sense of a shared mission on this element.  A participant is attached to the end of a rope that runs approximately 40-feet in the air to a pulley and back down to a group of 8 – 10 Team members attached to the other end of the rope.  Working in unison, the “pony team” pulls the “flying squirrel” up to a desired height so they can enjoy the thrill of flying.  Estimated cost is $7,500

Nurses Station Renovation  Complete the upgrades with new siding and windows. Our nurses station has seen many upgrades in the last two years. Help us complete the job! 
Estimated cost is $6,500
