volunteers at onawa

/

We’ve been blown away by all the help coming up to Onawa lately.

We appreciate all The Montgomery Academy staff that came up of their staff work day to help with some demo and wood projects!

The Air Force First Sergeant Academy at Maxwell came up several times over the course of a week to volunteer with some demo work and setting up beds in finished cabins.

first large volunteer groups at camp onawa

We recently had two large groups come and do some work.

Our first group came from Maxwell, and we had a lot of officer training candidates just getting work done.

Over the years, we’ve also had repeat volunteers. Our first overnight group at Onawa came to us from Seven Rivers Presbyterian Church in Lecanto, Florida.

We had a blast with them, and they even got to experience many of the sites of Montgomery including catching a Biscuits baseball game, visiting the Civil Rights Memorial, and more.

On their last day, campers from MAP’s Youth Navigation Program came up for the day, and we had a lot of fun!
