People

After over 20 years in factory jobs, where Dianne handled paperwork and Wayne manufactured bomb casings, the Holloways wanted to take their skills to the campground. Dianne manages the finances with fine detail and has a welcoming personality for all visitors, Wayne is a handy man who personally does all of the maintenance, building and repairs on the campground.

Progress

With a loan from The Progress Fund, the Holloway’s were able to build an additional  camping lodge for 4 , add four additional camping sites that include water, sewage & electric, and upgrade the campground swimming pool.

Impact

This campground is located in the heart of the Allegheny National Forest, a destination for camping, snowmobiling, fishing, and sight-seeing. Improvements to the campground will increase its ability to meet the needs of vacationers in the Northwest PA Great Outdoors.

This project was financed in part using Pennsylvania Small Business Credit Initiative (PSBCI) funds from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Department of Community and Economic Development.

The Progress Fund is an equal opportunity provider and employer.
