About
Story Book Lodge Christian Camp offers swimming, sports, games, and campfire stories as part of its Bible-focused summer camps and weekend retreats. The camp runs on a faith-run Christian model and serves home-cooked food that receives strong positive reviews from both campers and staff. Facilities include themed cabins from traditional children's stories, a state-of-the-art gym called King's Court, a dining hall, a chapel, and additional camp buildings and spaces.
• Ages: 5–18 years old
• Schedule: A week of fun, memories and learning.
• Price: We do not charge campers to attend. All contributions are voluntary.
Story Book Lodge Christian Camp has 45 acres of camp property that were purchased in 1929, and the first Christian camp took place there in 1948. The camp is staffed by volunteers throughout the summer, including seven volunteer resident workers who live on the campgrounds with their families. Jerry Brown and Jordan Juvland take care of maintenance, Tori Lewicki oversees the camp kitchen along with hospitality and cleaning, and Uncle Bill Howell serves as the camp director and organizes the camps.
The stated mission of Story Book Lodge Christian Camp is to promote the Lord Jesus Christ and the Word of God, with a desire for those who believe in Him to grow strong in their faith through His Word, and for those who do not know Him as Savior to come to believe in Him as they hear God’s Word. Testimonials from campers and parents describe positive experiences with worship, Bible teaching, home-cooked food, time away from normal distractions, and relationships with other Christians, as well as appreciation that the camp is free to attend.
