It’s been a hard year for camps all across the country, and Bluestone Camp & Retreat is no exception. Friends of Bluestone is working hard to create income to maintain the camp this year, and you can help. We’ve joined with SaveAround Coupon Books for a win-win fundraiser – you pay $20 for a coupon book (good now through the end of 2021), and half goes to Bluestone.

After you use 3-5 coupons, you’ve paid yourself back that $20 investment, and from there on, it’s pure savings. Plus, you have the pleasure of knowing you also provided needed capital for Bluestone! What’s not to love about that?

Best of all, these books are available across West Virginia and the country — 82 cities in 31 states. These books make great gifts for out-of-town friends, family, and, of course, Bluestone fans and supporters who no longer live close by. SaveAround Coupon Books have hundreds of valuable coupons for local businesses, including restaurants, services, retail, entertainment, recreation, and an additional 100 coupons for national chains, all worth more than $5,000 in savings.

Included in the cost is a downloadable app for smartphones, so you can redeem coupons with your phone rather than carry the book with you. In keeping with COVID concerns, restaurants are honoring coupons for take-out and curbside pickup, as well as dine-in where that’s available.
