YMCA CAMP - Horsethief Reservior
As construction manager for the YMCA camp, Jordan-Wilcomb strengthened its ability to work with non-profit organizations across the 10 years and many phases it took to complete this modern facility with a rustic feel, while also building a strong, long-lasting relationship with the YMCA. Designed by Erstad Architects, the camp is located on a remote 400+ acre site near Cascade that included several miles of road improvements, access paths, athletic field, a $1,000,000 water treatment facility along with a 50,000 and 150,000 gallon water storage tank. In the center of the camp is a 20,000 sq. ft. lodge with heavy timber accents and a 3,000 sq. ft. kitchen. The kitchen is an efficient and modern design capable of serving up to 500 people at a time. Other pieces of Camp include a pavilion/chapel, stream-side classroom building, 10 cabins, 7 yurts, zip line, lakefront docks, a 50 foot climbing tower, basketball courts, several remote vault toilets, two ropes courses and a hilltop campfire assembly area with a performance stage
