Crews from the City of Camas and Ballard Diving and Salvage work to pull a section of old dock from Lacamas Lake at the site of the former Moose Lodge on Friday. The wood and other debris were hauled away from the property yesterday for disposal. Four large logs, 6 to 7 feet in diameter, which were used as supports underneath the dock, were discovered. The old growth Douglas fir logs could be salvaged, then sold, traded or re-purposed to benefit the project.

The building and 5-acre parcel of property were purchased by the city of Camas in 2000. City work crews are planning to demolish the building during the first week in April, to make way for the new facility. Construction on the $1.9 million project could get underway in June.
The first signs foreshadowing the future construction of a new recreation facility in Camas were visible Friday.
That day, crews from the City of Camas and Ballard Diving and Salvage worked to remove the rickety, decades-old wooden dock that sat on Lacamas Lake in front of the city owned building formerly occupied by the Camas Moose. It was a step forward in a project that will ultimately result in construction of Lacamas Lake Lodge and Conference Center at 227 N.E. Lake Road.
