vacation  experience  in  the  region,  and  has been steadfast in their
commitment to the customer; the campground always puts the camper  first
and  has  been  proactive in improving the experience; this includes key
improvement  to  the  sites,  waterfront  and  dock  areas,  the   pool,
pavilions, and many other camp services; and
 
  WHEREAS, Camp Chautauqua is a major supporter and contributor to the
communities  in  which  it  exists  and  does  business;  this  includes
