When folks ask what Laketrails is, I usually ask how much time they have. Then I typically offer a 30-second version that usually sounds something like this:  It’s a place for teens to experience a real adventure.  We hope that campers learn something about themselves, about living in community, and about nature in the safety and world of God’s creation.

Regardless of what “Mother Nature” might throw at you, a few things at Laketrails are a sure bet:  new experiences, new friends, new ideas, people talking, people listening, singing, hard work, helping, sharing, and above all unconditional acceptance and hope!
