Camp Mary White, LLC is a limited liability company currently owned by Barbara and Michael Gibbons. Created for the express purpose of purchasing Camp Mary White in 2006, this limited liability company was originally comprised of Barbara Gibbons and Miss Mary’s heirs, Jack and Sally Marsh and their daughter, Lorraine Vogel. Plans are to restore the lodge and cabins to protect their historic character and to make use of the restored property for varied purposes that will sustain themselves financially over time.
The property already supports one aspect of the new venture: the camp now hosts upwards of 200 goats, both dairy and pygmy goats. The dairy goats will produce goat milk and goat milk products such as cheese, soap and shampoo. The pygmy goats, which have engaging personalities, are raised for show.
The other aspect of the venture is to make the facilities available for various purposes and groups, such as youth camping, family reunions, church-sponsored events, weddings, conferences, school field trips, retreat weekends and personal enrichment workshops. Friends of CMW, Inc. is working with the LLC to ensure that rustic resident camping for girls is highlighted among the offerings.
