Phase 2 of the Great Hall Project at 4-H Camp Overlook is complete!

This past autumn, the exterior superstructure of the Great Hall was built by the Texas Baptist Men (TBM), a group of retired construction volunteers. The TBM and their wives lived in RVs at Camp Overlook for 6 weeks in September and October, and put up the framing, walls, roofing, doors, and windows of the new building.

Phase 3 of the Great Hall project will begin in late 2007 / early 2008, and includes the installation of the electrical work, heating, and plumbing. The Great Hall is scheduled to open in 2008. The existing Main Lodge, one of the camp’s original buildings, will continue to function as a classroom and overflow conference area.

Once completed, the fully-weatherized Great Hall will function as a learning center, conference area, kitchen, and dining hall. The new building will enable 4-H Camp Overlook to move from the current 3-season programming to a year-round facility.
