Contested deletion

This page should not be speedily deleted because... (your reason here) --Mattystolz (talk) 02:49, 20 May 2014 (UTC) I am working on this page and it was a real place in Sacramento, CA. I am new to wikipedia but I want to preserve this history on here. I am having some issues like I cant upload pictures.[reply]

It's still a real place

While most of the original 800+ acres was returned to the owners (at their request due to the growth of Sacramento after WWII), 35+ acres was retained as an annex to McClellan AFB (the base now in the process of being decontaminated and transferred to civilian control under the auspices of owner McClellan Business Park, LLC and mediation contractor URS). Camp Kohler escaped all but a low amount of contamination due to a small PC board manufacturing operation there to support electronics prototyping. There was a hospital there that was re-purposed as the base laundry, the footprint of which can still be seen. The waste water from the laundry permanently shut down one water district well in N. Highlands and the sewage plant that treated it was removed, now being a subdivision. The remaining Camp Kohler is now an FAA radar site for the National Airspace System, its antenna whirling 24 hours a day. Much of this can be seen on government documents still visible on the web, so there is plenty to do. -- CampKohler (talk) 00:30, 16 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Camp Kohler's chapel was sold and moved to a Catholic church site on Old Auburn Road. It was later replaced by a brick church and the old chapel was moved across the parking lot to act as a community center. The inside and outside have been covered with new materials, so the old army look can't be seen. It is still there.
