Major Project
Restroom
The Restroom is 99.9% complete and is operational!
The 2023 Labor Day Weekend Music Festival marked the opening of the new Restroom. Everything worked flawlessly and everyone gave high complements on the construction.
After 18 months, it is nearly complete only a couple of cosmetic items left. The restroom consists of 3 separate rooms: women, men, and family. The center family area has 1 toilet and sink with a baby changing table; women’s room has 2 toilets, and 2 sinks; and the men’s room has 1 toilet, 2 urinals, 2 sinks. All rooms are ADA compliant. The family room will be open during the day utilizing special electronic locks, and the others will be used during large park events. All will be closed over the winter (November thru March) when the water is drained. Stop by to see the final product, especially during WHOA’s Fall Festival on 23 September!
This project could only have been completed with the financial support of The Woods community, our Corporate Friends, and some WCP partners. The Winter Camp Park partners would like to THANK the Woods community for your continuing donations to the Restroom project.
We are still graciously accepting donations to pay off the building and for our normal yearly bills! Go to the Contribute page to see how.

Contribute
Join the 2023 Friends of Winter Camp Park Program now!
Yes, we still have 2023 decals, and we are happy to have you join, or renew your participation in the Friends of Winter Camp Park program for 2023. The initial major projects have been funded by contributions from the twelve homeowner partners, including the purchase of the land, construction of two family-sized pavilions, and significant excavation and grading to mediate water flow.
​
Contributions by other homeowners helped purchase picnic tables and property maintenance and enhancement.
Continued support is needed from the community to accomplish other projects and to pay for annual recurring expenses of over $10,000 (insurance, taxes, accounting, electric, grass cutting, computer services and portable potty), and to keep this area FREE FOR ALL.
​
So, join the Friends of the Park program to support this goal.
Projects
This Park is being developed thru a series of projects. These projects will be started based on several factors: safety, usability, interest, and availability of resources.
​
Check out the Projects page to see what has already been completed.
