In the early days, a mule barn was also in operation on the grounds. It housed the mules used to plow and clear the land for the developing new structures, pull boats and assist in mowing the grass. The mules in time were replaced by gasolinepowered machinery. Many more buildings were added during the development of the camp. A hospital, craft hall, administration building and dormitory-type housing were erected. The assembly and other groups such as junior high, elementary and senior high students use the camps facilities. Camps for adults, suntiner schools and whole families are also scheduled from June through each August. Programs at Epworth Forest are conducted by the Commission on Camps and Conferences of the United Methodist Churches.
