Pine Lake Camp || Eldora, Iowa - Camps and Retreats

Pine Lake exists because of the support and contributions of thousands of people. From the tireless efforts of the camp’s founders in the mid 1950s, to the camp counselors serving every summer, this is a meeting place with God that has been built by God’s people. I hope you’ll consider giving to Pine Lake and joining the generations of others who have helped make Pine Lake Camps a meeting place with God.

Memorials

So many people look back on their time at Pine Lake Camps and remember the friends they met and the life-changing spiritual decisions they made. We call it "a meeting place with God" because so many people did in fact meet God for the first time at Pine Lake.

That's why many families decide memorial gifts should be designated to Pine Lake Camps. It's a place that has made a spiritual impact in their family and they want to see that impact go on for generations—and stretch into eternity.

If you're considering a memorial gift our goal is to make it easy for you during that difficult time.

We want to serve families and make the memorial process as smooth as possible. We send receipts for tax-deductible donations directly to individual donors as well as provide donation records to families so they can thank individual donors at their convenience.

“His mother told me how happy and impressed she was with the camp itself and more importantly, the staff.”

My son made friends with a young person during the previous school year. He had invited him to our church youth group activities and further decided to invite him to Pine Lake. As a result, we met his parents at Pine Lake this summer so they could see where their child would be staying for a week. His mother later told me how happy and impressed she was with the camp itself, and more importantly, the staff. She told me that her son had been to other camps in the past, but she always felt that he was just a number to the staff, not a person. She couldn't believe that the counselors met and took interest in each of the kids when they arrived. I appreciate each and every one of the staff for the personal touches that they contribute to make Pine Lake such an awesome camp. These kids have these memories for a lifetime and each of you have given of yourselves so they can have this experience. Thank you!! -- Camper Parent
