Friends of Camp Kirkwood  -  News Release

We are happy to announce that a new Kubota 4wheel drive tractor with a front loader and 5' box blade were delivered to Camp Kirkwood today by Nash Equipment Company of Burgaw, NC.  The tractor was a gift from Mary Farmer and her mother, also Mary Farmer of St. Andrews Covenant Presbyterian Church in Wilmington.  The welcoming committee consisted of Mary Farmer, Ann Cottle, Rev. John Belden, Hugh Rouse and Pate Southerland.  We are most grateful to Mary and her mom for this generous gift. It seems pretty appropriate for "a Farmer to give a tractor".  The tractor is a welcome addition and will be used extensively to maintain Camp Kirkwood.

Pate Southerland, President
