 This
weekend combines camp service with a social opportunity. Each fall, a large
number of Alumni gather at camp to clear, renovate or rebuild some of the 35 km
of hiking trails at HSR during the day and renew old friendships each evening.
 During
the September 1996 weekend, twenty-five
Alumni built a brand new, sixty foot bridge across Pee Pond to replace the
previous route over the crumbling beaver dam.
Although the base was built from
two large pines felled at the site, all the lumber for the runners and decking
had to be carried in from Moore Lake to Pee Pond. Thanks
to John Pollock (?-96) and his father for arranging donation
of lumber for the decking. Check out a great photo of
the new bridge at the right (yes that's
Ab Morrow on the bridge!)
 There
was also maintenance work done on the Pike's Peak and J.C. Trails.
Thanks to all for their hard work including those who laboured in the kitchen to
feed everyone!
