Bar Harbour Camp HistoryThe Bar Harbour Camp Society, a registered non-profit organization, is a group of people from various communities in Central Alberta residing within the bounds of Coronation Presbytery of the United Church of Canada. Members are elected to the board of directors which operates the camp, property, and facilities on behalf of the United Church of Canada, which owns the land.Bar Harbour's land is close to 100 acres of secluded lakeshore property. It was donated by the landowner Fred Holder, to the United Church of Canada in the 1920's to be used for "youth camping." Over time, the camp has changed, grown, and developed into what it is today.
