Is Utah spending more than its fair share?

Post by _Drifting »

We have seen the extraordinary amount of Church funds thrown at the City Creek Centre. And now...

Welcome to the Heber Valley Camp!

The Heber Valley Camp is being created by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to serve the needs of Young Women, families, and Church groups in central and northern Utah. This beautiful camp is located on a spectacular tract of land covering more than 8,000 acres in the mountains southeast of Heber, Utah. Elevation of the camp ranges from 7,500-10,000 feet.

The first two camps were completed and first used during the summer of 2003. Additional camps have been added each year and construction is expected to continue for several more years. When completed, the Heber Valley Camp is expected to have the capacity to host over 5,000 campers at a time. While its primary purpose is to serve the Church's Young Women Camp program, it is also available to be used by other Church and family groups when not in use by the Young Women.


Do any of you have the Church spending billions of dollars in your part of the world on things such as upmarket malls and upmarket Camp sites?

Or is Utah being overly highly favoured of the Lords annointed?
