Habitat for Humanity of Camp County celebrates 25 years with new office
On Sunday, October 1, the local Habitat for Humanity celebrated an unofficial 25 years of community service with an open house tour of their new office building. While the building isn’t quite finished, the office was able to open regardless in celebration of a number of overlapping dates. World Habitat Day was celebrated on October 1, as was Former President Jimmy Carter’s 99th birthday. The day also served as Camp County Habitat’s unofficial 25th anniversary. Executive Director Linda Baxter explained that, while the non-profit was officially recognized in 1999, the organization started out as a small group of pastors in 1998.
