According to the camp’s Facebook page, Wilhelm’s donated a wheelchair accessible van to the camp.

“This will give us the ability to transport campers who use wheelchairs if the need arises,” the organization stated. “We can not thank them enough for this very generous donation.”

“Special thanks to Rod Wilhelm for donating the van and Randy Williams for thinking of us and making sure the van was in good working order,” the organization continued. “Elks Camp Grassick is so lucky to have such wonderful people who support us.”
