I was Director of Camp Allen for 8 years in the 1970's. It is great to see that the camp is still going strong. It brings back so many great memories.
I am sending my check for the Camp Allen Building Fund.

The Telephone Pioneers have donated their time and energy many times to Camp Allen. They would clean up, paint, whatever was needed. It's nice to know that the facilities will be rebuilt after so many years of just trying to maintain them.

Thank you Stephen Beale for a great story on Camp Allen. We are very grateful to all who have made donations since our appeal began back in December of 2007. We need to build a new dining hall and several new cabins to accommodate all who want to spend time here. Since early March we have been full!, with a long waiting list. This summer more than 600 campers will spend time with us!
We continue to ask our neighbors and friends in Greater Manchester and throughout the region to support us as we rebuild Camp Allen!
