Since 1947, Stony Glen Camp has been a year-round outdoor destination for quiet retreats and action-packed recreation. Located on 322 acres of secluded wooded property about 45 min. east of Cleveland Ohio. Stony Glen offers Christ-centered camping for groups, families and individuals.

Stony Glen Camp Has 15 cabins, Indoor Gym, 5 waterfalls, a 3 acher lake, River, plus much more.As with many of the Lord's instrumentalities, it is fascinating to look back and see how He brought Stony Glen to where it is today. In retrospect, we see a pattern of people’s personal burdens and the resulting acts, all in proper and timely sequence.



A man named Joe Coughlin had an idea of relating boys to Christ through a dynamic program of achievement arid activity that included camping. This became Christian Service Brigade. In the mid 1940's Joe and a Frontiersman Group began Brigade camping in Ohio. They rented camping facilities where they could. At least two summer camps were held at Camp Chibiabos near Doylestown, Ohio. One summer boys were transported out of state to the Erie (PA) Bible Conference Grounds. Among the members of this early Frontiersman Group were Lee Troup and C. Sam Gray, both of Goss Memorial Church in Akron.



Concurrent with this, George E. Milner was trying to add dimension to his work with a boy's Sunday School Class in an inner city Cleveland church. He was looking for a way to get them out into the country on some programmed basis. His father, George S. Milner was a key member of Hough Avenue (later Cedar Hill) Baptist Church. One Sunday in 1946 or 1947, Joe Coughlin brought his Frontiersman Group to participate in the morning service at Hough Avenue. G.S. Milner was so impressed with these sharp young men and their program that he invited them home to dinner. This all led to a discussion of the merits and problems of a boy's camping program. One of the biggest problems, of course, was lack of a site that could be developed for their special purpose.



As a result of his own work with boys, plus this new contact with Joe Coughlin and his Frontiersman, George E. Milner proposed to his father that they find a place to establish a Brigade camp in Northeast Ohio.
