Year-Round Staff

Mary Lou Farmer                       

Camp Administrator

Mary Lou became camp administrator in August of 2001. Prior to her job as administrator, she was the administrative assistant. Mary Lou is dedicated to customer service and guest relations. Her style of administration is hands-on, and if any of the other departments need help she is right there to assist. She is also the one who gets to greet the guests as they arrive!

Gay Widmer

Maintenance Director

Most folks notice right away how well the grounds and buildings are maintained. That is because Gay is a very meticulous groundskeeper! You might find him mowing, maintaining the lane, fixing the occasional break or building something in his shop. He's our "go-to guy"; if you need it-- he can build it!

Gloria Widmer

Head Housekeeper

You can't operate a camp like ours without some behind-the-scenes assistance! Gloria's attention to detail makes our facilities some of the finest around. (It also helps that she's married to our maintenance director!) If you talk to any of her 'crew', you will find that she makes cleaning one of the most fun jobs at camp! But don't kid yourself, she knows exactly how many toilets there are to clean!

Julie Bontrager

Administrative Assistant

Julie has been in the office since taking over for Mary Lou. Staying on top of all the reservations and program registrations and providing support for all the other camp operations is a huge task, but one that she enjoys! Hers is the voice that you will likely hear when you call the camp office to reserve a facility or receive information on any of our programs.

Juanita Benedict

Food Service Manager

Ask anyone who has been a guest here, and they will list our food service as one of the reasons they like to come! Juanita likes to prepare homestyle food from scratch. Her dishes might not be fancy, but they are plentiful and delicious. Many of our return groups ask that she fix the same meals each time they come!

Johanna Bontrager

Program Director

Our newest addition to staff is not new to camp at all! Johanna Bontrager (not related to Julie, really) first came to camp for Grandfolk/Littlefolk day waaaay back, and has been here every year since! She came as a camper, assistant counselor, counselor, program assistant, camp pastor, music director...whew! She's certainly worn all the hats there are to wear during summer program; and we look forward to Johanna using her gifts as Program Director for years to come!
