Barry County YMCA's Camp Algonguin, MI539 viewsYou don't need a lot of money to get a very functional design. Pick simple, yet large windows. Simple lights, save some money for a nice fireplace. Now don't forget to put back some of the cool old plaques and graces and awards that made your OLD dining hall so special to kids, alumni, and parents.

YMCA Camp Dudley, WA (yeah, there are two camp Dudley's!)364 viewsOften a small camp dining hall is easier to feel "at home" in, even on a budget. Note the simple hanging lamps that efficiently puts most of the light where it's needed, avoiding a blinding-white ceiling so common in "indirect lighting" that designers push for. http://www.yakimaymca.org/
