At 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.

Pine Lake Camps features camping experiences for kids of all ages. Most camps are one week long from Sunday through Friday. Youth camps are designed to encourage growth in all areas of a child's life. We believe that a good camp experience will foster a love for God, personal confidence, life long skills and friendships that last for years to come, all in a caring and safe environment.

At Pine Lake we never like to do the same thing twice. We call it age specific programming. Your kids will call it,“Even more fun than last year!” We offer camps that are created specifically for your child's age group while constantly seeking out new and exciting ways to have fun.
