Huntingdon County camp adding new dining hall ahead of 2025 season
The camp tore the original building down and is replacing it with a brand new one.
'Our previous dining hall, was not winterized. We didn't have, like, really good AC in it or heating. So this is just going to open up so much opportunity for us to serve kids and teens year round,' Food Service Director Jessica Miller said.

Missouri firefighters dig tunnel to rescue dog
DOUGLAS COUNTY, Mo — Late Saturday night, firefighters had to get creative to save a dog that had gotten himself into deep trouble. The Eastern Douglas County Volunteer Fire Department was dispatched just before 11 p.m. Saturday to find a dog stuck between two rocks. Crews arrived to find a small dachshund named 'Fedor' that had gotten itself stuck, according to the department. The hole was only big enough for the dog to fit into, and was stuck behind a large rock. To get to him firefighters had to dig a tunnel underneath the rock about 15-feet deep to free the pooch. After about 4 hours of digging and strategizing, Fedor was pulled out and reunited with his owner. No humans or dogs were injured during the rescue. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
