Sitler’s Donates LED Lighting to Camp Courageous!

Hear from our experts on Everything LED Lighting

Sitler’s LED Supplies has pledged $100,000 dollars in LED lighting and installation services to Camp Courageous in honor of William Andrew “Andy” Meardon, part owner, who passed away on December 15, 2016. This donation is in honor of Andy’s ever-present and generous spirit. Sitler’s is thrilled to be a part of this project in honor of Andy and his desire to brighten the lives of so many deserving people by giving back.

Camp Courageous

Camp Courageous was founded in 1972, when 40 acres of land was donated for the sole purpose of opening a camp for people with special needs. Camp Courageous was built with donated materials and services. They provide amazing activities and services for people of all abilities and ages, hosting campers from ages 1 to 105! The Camp Courageous board stated, “This will be the largest event/upgrade in the history of Camp Courageous.”

Camp Courageous is supported by donations and volunteering, with no government assistance, to this day. Sitler’s is proud to help this amazing organization and its campers thrive!
