Since 1972, Timber-lee Christian Center has operated a year-round Christian camp, conference and retreat center under the auspices of the Forest Lakes and Great Lakes Districts of the Evangelical Free Church of America.  Timber-lee is located near the southern part of Wisconsin’s Kettle Moraine State Forest.  It is 45 minutes southwest of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and 2 hours northwest of Chicago, Illinois.  The site encompasses over 600 acres of wooded, rolling scenic land, and contains 65 existing buildings.  Its mission is to create engaging communities where each young person encounters Christ through a dynamic camp experience.

On July 14, 1946, a group of men made an offer of $5,000 to the Railroad Company to purchase 20 acres of weedy marshland in Williams Bay, Wisconsin.

With the help of an army of volunteers, the “Williams Bay Evangelical Free Church Bible Camp” opened its doors the summer of 1947.  Thus began the adventure of seeing God work in the lives of thousands of boys and girls, men and women.
