Caboose delivered to Camp Courageous

By Charlie Becker

FOLLOW UP:  The caboose is located next to the camp's train depot and overlooks the camp's new Lake Todd.

At approximately 11 AM today (10/28/13) a caboose was delivered to Camp Courageous. This caboose is being donated by CRANDIC and will be a living quarters for volunteers working at the camp.

Earlier, the caboose went from CRANDIC to ADM to be sandblasted, painted and redesigned to provide living space for volunteers and staff at Camp Courageous. A big thank you to Donny Coonrod who will be donating the transportation and crane work to get the caboose from Cedar Rapids to camp. Jerry McElmeel will also be part of the move to Camp Courageous.
