It was once partially destroyed by fire over a weekend in November 2020, including the camp’s main barn space. Although the fire significantly damaged their beloved camp, no people or animals were harmed during the incident. It’s also reported that the fires did not affect the camp’s Pet Barn – which helps to rehome foster puppies and kittens.
The sudden mishap devastated the whole Lawrence family and the campers. But they did not give up. Soon after the incident, they started rebuilding the campsite with help and donations from the public.
