Victory Junction Gang Camp, opened in 2004, is a summer camp for children with chronic medical conditions and serious illnesses founded by Kyle and Pattie Petty in Randleman, NC. In 2000, the Pettys partnered with actor Paul Newman, creator of The Hole in the Wall Camps, to launch their idea. The camp was built to honor their son Adam Petty who died during practice for a NASCAR Race.

The mission of the camp is to enrich the lives of children by providing fun, exciting, empowering camp experiences in a safe environment, medically equipped to meet their needs.

In fall 2005, John S. Clark contracted with Anderson & Associates to provide services for a new administration building. In January 2006, A&A began civil site design on a three-story treehouse, a 4,200-square foot activity maze, a nine hole miniature golf course, a village of modular homes for medical staff and employees who maintain year-round residency, a four-lane bowling alley and arcade, a travel center, an observation deck, and an enormous greenhouse surrounded by a cluster of smaller greenhouses.

A&A Project Manager Robin Austin said, "These are unique and challenging projects with tight deadlines. Although everyone involved has been under a lot of pressure to make it happen, we are grateful to have this opportunity to be involved with an organization that is making a difference in children’s lives."

Kim Rennick graduated from Randolph-Macon College with a BA in Arts Management & English Literature. She worked in the museum field for a number of years following college and during this time took some horticulture classes for fun. She was introduced to landscape architecture in one of these classes and was particularly inspired by her professor and the works and cultures he exposed the class to. Kim joined Anderson & Associates as a Land Planner and Designer in 2005.

Kim received her Master’s in Landscape Architecture from Virginia Tech in 2003 and is currently studying for her licensure.

"Landscape architects often have sensitivity to the environment and culture, along with a creative and logical side," she said. "Incorporate those qualities into a project’s design and process and the results can be great."

Kim enjoys getting to know each project and working with clients to meet their needs and goals. She said, "I appreciate that each project has unique qualities and issues."
