Scott Fischer: Preparing Equipment for Service and Disaster Relief

New tracks being installed on the skid steer that also supports regional disaster relief efforts

At Riverside Camp, staff and volunteers recently completed an important maintenance project on one of the camp’s key pieces of equipment—a skid steer that is also made available for disaster relief efforts when needed. The machine received a new set of tracks to ensure it remains reliable, safe, and ready for heavy use in a variety of conditions.

During the installation, careful work was done to lift, position, and secure the new tracks, demonstrating the behind-the-scenes dedication that keeps essential equipment in working order. Proper maintenance like this not only supports daily operations at the camp but also strengthens the ministry’s ability to respond effectively when disaster strikes.

By keeping this skid steer in top condition, Riverside Camp helps ensure that communities affected by storms or emergencies can receive timely and practical support. It’s a reminder that preparedness starts long before the moment of need—and that even routine work in a workshop plays a meaningful role in serving others.
