In 1959, a group of pastors in Eugene started Camp Lutherwood Oregon as a Bible camp for their kids after the Lutheran Layman’s League of Lane County purchased 28 acres west of Junction City to create a camp for children and teens in the Eugene area. Camp Lutherwood Oregon states that it creates intentional experiences for people to access the outdoors for restoration, play, and growth. The program is guided by Christian faith and Lutheran roots and is open to all people for year-round camps, retreats, outdoor school, and events. It states that it values generous hospitality and a welcoming community for people of all ages, abilities, faith experience, race, ethnicity, immigration status, financial capacity, gender identity, sexual expression, and sexual orientation. Camp Lutherwood Oregon is located within the traditional homelands of the Kalapuya and Chelamela tribes. The site includes 72 forested acres with comfortable cabins, food service, and staff. The camp has a Healthy Forest Plan that focuses on caring for trees, the stream, and wildlife, improving forest health, fish habitat in Luther Creek, educational access, and stopping the spread of invasive species. Camp Lutherwood is an association of Lutheran congregations in Oregon and Southwest Washington, and school groups visit throughout the year for outdoor school experiences supported in part by a grant from the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). Parents and campers describe Camp Lutherwood Oregon as a place where children make friends, return year after year, and talk about happy memories, stories, songs, and meaningful connections with other campers and leaders.
