A Saskatchewan not-for-profit is reeling after vandals inflicted thousands of dollars of damages at the Good Spirit Scout Camp.
The break-in occurred just after the Victoria Day long weekend, according to information released by Saskatchewan RCMP on July 16.
“Someone came in and did a horrible vandalism act, they broke almost every window, busted down a couple doors, they expelled all the fire extinguishers and stole them,” explained Kent Latimer, camp administrator for Good Spirit Scout Camp.
Latimer said the cost to fix everything totals around $20,000.
A Go-Fund Me is in place to help cover the not-for-profit group.
“We’re about half way there right now, the community and surrounding area has helped us incredibly,” he expressed.
“We’re grateful for everyone who has contributed money. We’ve had donations come from as far way as Phoenix, Arizona.”
