| | Camp Kwomais (South Surrey) < on 4/24/2010 6:28 AM >
| | | In the Ocean Park community of South Surrey lies an old United Way Church camp called Camp Kwomais. The City of Surrey purchased the land to prevent it from being built into condos. Lots of buildings were here such as the grand hall with a stage, mess hall, small cabins that held 8 people, swimming pool, and numerous other buildings. One building had a typewriter and baby carriage from the 1940's in it. I managed to get into the park and snap some pictures. Sadly a few days after taking the pictures they demolished everything but the two main large buildings. http://www.oceanparkca.ca/kwomais.html http://wikimapia.o...1776/Kwomais-Point

| | | Aw, this would've been really neat to explore. How long ago were you there/did they tear it down?
Do not attempt to stop with hands or genitals. |

| | | Pathetic that they tore it down rather than develop it into a low-income housing project. The buildings are perfectly suited for the same scenarios that they are building down in Portland. That one cottage with the barrel is particularly beautiful..

| | | The tore it down about three years ago which was a shame as all of the buildings were structurally in tact and very safe. The outdoor chapel was kind of spooky as when I was there sitting on the man made benches the entire area got really quiet. There was also "the lookout" that they built there where you could walk out onto this wooden pier which they built by hand where they physically moved and put in the wooden planks and poured the concrete. At one point it was elevated so that the campers could watch for orcas in the ocean. It was sad to see all of the people who had carved their names into the pier were gone as some of them dated back to the 1930's
