In the spring of 2003, Camp Geddie received a special gift from the congregation of St. Andrews Presbyterian Church in Pictou. The session of St.Andrews donated funds to erect a new cabin in memory of MacKenzie “Mac” and Louise “Cov” Langille. The Langilles were great supporters of their Church and of Camp Geddie.

The funds were made available from a bequest made by the Langilles to St. Andrews and the labour for the project was provided by the Airfield Engineering Flight of Pictou.

As a legacy to the Family, the cabin is known as the Langille Cabin and will benefit our campers for many years.

HOW YOUR GIFT WILL SERVE

Camp Geddie is operated by the Synod of the Atlantic Provinces of the Presbyterian Church in Canada. For 64 years it has been dedicated to a camping ministry with children, young people and adults. Participants enjoy year-round educational programs, focusing on the study of God’s Word in a setting which allows campers to appreciate the beauty of God’s world.

Geddie’s facilities include a modern, year-round conference centre, enabling the site to be used for retreats, training seminars, and university workshops.

Operating costs are high and contributions are welcome. Camperships are available to those who cannot afford the full registration fee. Donations to this program are also welcome.
