DescriptionAt the 1956 IBC Annual Meeting in Kiron, the camp committee brought a recommendation to purchase a piece of land on the shores of Pine Lake near Eldora for $5,000. It seemed like an ideal location and the right price. Despite the lack of available funds, a motion to purchase the property was passed. The moderator asked the delegates to "pause for a few minutes and ask God for the $5,000." By the end of the meeting the total amount had been raised. Over the years, old buildings were torn down or moved, new buildings were added and additional land was purchased. The current facility now boasts 49 acres, 34 buildings, a swimming pool, an out post, high ropes course, a pastor's retreat cabin along with a variety of outdoor activities. The camp borders 585 acres of Pine Lake's State Park which includes Upper and Lower Pine Lake.Over the past 50 years, the camp has averaged 500 summer campers and over 1,500 first-time decisions to followup Jesus have been made. Praise God. Details
