“The endowment funds are held for various uses. The vast majority are used to provide scholarships to campers while others provide funds to blue lake public radio.”

Schedule D, Page 3, Part X

“Blue lake is a not-for-profit organization exempt from income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. However, income from certain activities not directly related to the camps tax-exempt purpose is subject to taxation as unrelated business income. Generally, tax years from 2020 through the current year remain open to examination. Management does not believe that the results from any examination of these open years would have a material adverse effect on the camp.”
