There were accolades and some tears flowing during a June 4 ceremony to officially open the Jane Clifton Ashford Center at Camp Arrowhead, which has been under the auspices of the Episcopal Church of Delaware since it opened in 1954.

During a moving part of the ceremony, Nanticoke Indian tribe members Ragghi Rain and Herbert Jackson offered blessings for the new building and camp.

The existing bell tower, named in honor of longtime cook Delma Batson, has been moved to the terrace.

The center is sponsored by the family of Jane Clifton Ashford, including her husband, Ted, and sons Ted III and Tim.

Steering committee members, who were charged with raising $5.5 million, said it’s a real miracle that the capital campaign goal was reached during the…
