The Camp Palmer staff and board are very thankful for the $15,000 grant from Farm Credit Mid-America as part of their Community Giving Fund. Also, a recent gift from Williams County Pork Producers of $2500 for the pool is greatly appreciated. The new pool opened on May 31, 2015. Currently these gifts have reduced the pool loan from $40,000 down to $25,000.
