90 Years of Leadership.
Now It's Our Turn
Now It's Our Turn
Present Day
Corwood has always been built on grit, heart, and service.
But time leaves its mark.
Cabins need repair.
Structures need reinforcement.
Infrastructure needs updating.
Land stewardship requires ongoing investment.
Without immediate restoration, we risk losing not just buildings, but a living legacy that has shaped generations of leaders.
This is not cosmetic.
It is structural and it is urgent.
Once fully funded, Corwood can:
• Restore cabins and gathering spaces
• Update/modernize Mess Hall and Kitchen
• Improve safety, accessibility, and infrastructure
• Create sustainable land stewardship practices
• Establish long-term operational stability
But beyond repairs…We envision a place where:
→ Athletes build character.
→ Organizational leaders reconnect to purpose.
→ Young people tap into who they are capable of becoming, and
→ Generation of leaders continue to embody the incredible nature of Corwood.
This land deserves another 90 years.

2028
Long-term sustainability planning + endowment foundation
For nearly a century, Corwood has shaped young people into courageous leaders, dependable teammates, and principled humans.
Now the land, and the legacy, need our support. Choose your impact.
Supports structural restoration and major infrastructure upgrades.
Funds cabin restoration and ropes course renewal.
Helps preserve experiential programming elements.
Contributes directly to land preservation and operational needs.
Corwood has always been sustained by people who showed up.
If you’re not in a position to give financially, we invite you to give your time, your skills, and your energy. Restoration is not just about funding, it’s about community stewardship.
Whether you can swing a hammer, paint a cabin, repair a dock, clear brush, offer professional services, or simply show up ready to help, there is a place here for you.
Corwood once thrived as a self-sustaining camp, but decades ago rising operational costs surpassed revenue. The math no longer worked, even though the mission did. Today we are rebuilding with wisdom and transparency.
Your support helps fund essential upkeep and structural restoration of cabins, docks, gathering spaces, and experiential elements so they meet modern safety standards, while also covering the significant costs of insurance, liability protection, and regulatory compliance that ensure long-term sustainability.
Most importantly, your support helps preserve the legacy of a place that has shaped generations of leaders. We are not reopening casually—we are reopening responsibly.
