' WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22nd, 1953 PORTABLE ORGAN for kintail camp During last; week’s sessions of j h (he Hamilton-London Synod yoffG the Presbyterian Church, held in. New Knox Church, Goderich, the presentation of a portable reed organ, was made to the Kintaii CamP- presentation was made by Mrs, K, D. Taylor of Burlington, as a memorial to her mother, the. late Mrs., Elizabeth /$cotlt McKay qf Cromarty, ' ,. VTant Hamilton Area Camp’ ".•. A request from Hanfilton Pres- : bytery was presented to Synod for* a summer; camp in the east ? encP of the Sy n,od area near Ham - Atom At present the only Estab­ lished camp supported by “ the Synod is at Kintail.. A majority of the synod’s sum­ mer camp committee recommen­ ded that no action should be taken. Synod decided, however, to have a special committee ap­ pointed to consider the request, and to report to synod€ at the 1954 annual meeting. Synod members from the Ham­ ilton area argued that the num­ ber of campers going to Kintail from the Hamilton and Niagara Falls presbyteries is so small that a second camp, in the east end of the synod area, would not in­ terfere twiUh Kintaii. Rev. Fer­ guson J. . Barr, Stratford, chair­ man” of "the- Kintaii Camp com­ mittee, noted, 'however, that the number of campers at Kintajl last summer, from the Hamilton and Niagara Falls' presbyteries, _wasr„asgreaLprOportionately^. as frbm any other presbytery in the synod, with the exception of the Huron-Maitland presbytery, with­ in which the Kintail site is locat- ed. , .• —----- Suggests Three Camps, j _ As a policy for the future; said Mr; Barr, he would like to see three Presbyterian church camps in the Hamilton-London synod. He suggested that one. camp, for the central portion of the synod area, .might be established on the new lake that has been created near London by the building of Fanshawe dam. Mr. Barr s,ai.d he believes that the, Upper Thames Conservation Authority might be prepared to give free a'site for a church camp. There are mote difficulties than might be imagined in establishing a satisfactory'Church camp,-saijd Rev. R, g. MacMillan, minister of ■ Knox Church, Goderich. It has taken 25 years, he said, to bring .Kintail Camp up' to its present level; the investment is indicated, he said^by the fact that $30,000 insurance is carried on the build­ ings. ■ ‘‘We are rated”, said Mr. Mac- Millan> “one of the best camps along Lake Huron; Kitchigami Camp is neck^in-neck with us, find it is supported, by a very strong Rotary Club at Stratford”. . Mr. MacMillan said he believes synod members' ought to realize that, under , current condition’s, jvith complex government regu­ lations to be, )*met, it 'is not 'an easy matter to establish a church camp. He estimated that $50,000 [night be ' required to establish in the Hamilton area ,a camp to Match Kintaii. ......; ..............................................I-.I..............
