Lake Lundgren Bible Camp was born in June of 1935 under the direction of Rev. Ernest Tremblay who was the first president of what was then called the Sunday School and Chautauqua Association of Marinette County. Camp started with 50 campers for one week of summer camp. Over the years, under many other godly leaders, the camp continued to grow as more and more weeks of camp were added to the schedule, and as land and buildings were donated, largely by the Danielson family. LLBC has always been Christ-honoring and biblically-rooted, with both a strong missionary and evangelistic ministry.
In 1975, the name was changed to Lake Lundgren Bible Camp and Mike and Ruth Hryshkanych became the camp's first full-time staff. Since that time, we have grown to a year-round camp ministry with a full summer of youth camps plus a wide variety of family retreats during the fall, winter, and spring. We have also continued to add staff members and currently have about 15 full-time missionary staff members currently serving or raising support to begin work within the next year, with hundreds more volunteer staff throughout the year.
From our humble beginnings, with those 50 campers for one week of camp, Lake Lundgren has become a full-service camp on over 100 wooded acres and serving almost 5000 campers per year between our own programs and groups who rent our facility for their own retreats and camps.
We continue to look to the Lord for the future of Lake Lundgren Bible Camp, as he continues to lead and provide for us!
