Dear Camp People,
For generations, campers have gathered in this space to create community and engage in worship. Campers experience the presence of God - sometimes for the very first time under these log rafters. We use this space to engage senses, lift campers up as worship leaders, and use creative worship elements alongside traditional and familiar experiences that work together to strengthen the relationship between camp and congregation.
 
Now, this beloved space is in critical need of restoration. Rot from Wisconsin winters, critters who have become too friendly, and 70 years of incredible ministry have taken a toll on the structural integrity of the logs and it is time to act! Will you join the generous supporters who know and love the Chapel in making this restoration project possible?
 
The estimated cost for the full restoration is $80,000. We are excited to announce that thanks to lead gifts from early donors, we have already raised $60,000! We are working with a contractor, and hope to begin work before camp starts this summer. 
 
  • To make a gift online, visit CrosswaysCamps.org/donate and select “Pine Lake Chapel.” 
  • To give by mail, make a check out to Crossways Camping Ministries with "Pine Lake Chapel" as the memo. Checks should be mailed to

Kids want to do more than simply fit in. They want to find people who care about them just as they are. They want to belong. At Crossways, we provide experiences that build community and celebrate authenticity. Come experience how fun and meaningful a week of your summer can be when you don't just fit in, you belong!

CAMP IS FOR EVERYONE
Our camp fee is based on the actual costs of keeping camp open, safe, and fun. We know that's not always affordable, so we have options to make sure everyone can join us. When you register, you'll have the option to select from one of three options, or tiers. 
  • Tier 1 is the actual cost of camp
  • Tier 2 includes an automatic 10% scholarship
  • Tier 3 includes an automatic 20% scholarship.
Larger scholarships are available, thanks to our donors and supporters. The process is simple – just download and complete the scholarship form. We will be awarding our first round of scholarships in early March. Scholarships are awarded on a rolling basis, so we encourage you to register and apply early!
 

At Crossways, we love Camp People -- the donors, advocates, and supporters who make this mission possible. Because of you, we are bringing people together in Christ, so that lives are changed and communities enhanced
