With Dads ‘N’ Lads (& Grandpas!) Retreat just around the corner, and our Dads ‘N’ Daughters Retreat coming up at the end of the summer, what better time to celebrate the dads in our lives? Here are 12 reasons, according to Bobber Bill, why God invented dads! 1. To play catch with future “Hall of …
In today’s world there is no shortage of opportunities for a dad to build into his boys. What often is missing is action, as in actually getting out and doing something together.
How do we fix broken? One life…one decision…one act of kindness at a time…all in the name of Jesus.

A message from Executive Director Bill Abeler about Camp Lebanon’s hiring practices for summer camp.
The meteorologists called it the “polar vortex.” But Minnesota campers aren’t fear-frozen by a little bit of chill, not when over 150 guests are on site!
Update for December- 11,000 guests reached in 2018, plus prayer & praise requests for the upcoming season!
November recap: Fall Quilt keeps Camp rockin’, Fall FIRE brings over 180 teens and leaders to Camp, and a surprise blessing for our facility!
The Minnesota Twins might have fallen short of expectations even as the Vikings’ new season opened wide right, but Camp followed up a record summer with a victorious September.
Judging by the numbers, God showed up BIG at Camp Lebanon this summer! The “Funnest Fun!” kicked off with a record June, as all three camps established new highs.
While reaching goals is fun, it’s not the numbers that energizes our team. The bottom line is this: God is giving Camp Lebanon a tremendous opportunity to share the love and life of His Son Jesus with TONS of kids grades K-12.

Camp Lebanon News Hot Action Heats Up Cold Winter Meterologists say the winter of 2018 is experiencing average temps, but people sure have complained a ton about the cold. But you could never tell from the high energy and powerful ministry at Camp this winter! In fact, the action has been hot, as we’ve hosted …
Sometime in October of 1965, as the Minnesota Twins were battling the LA Dodgers in the World Series, my love for baseball was born. The recollections of a seven-year-old are quite foggy, for sure, but with the help of a sports-crazy neighbor named George, I became hooked on the game for life. Memories from my …
“As a dad of three boys, I was always looking for those “dad moments” to experience with my boys. For about 10 years each spring, the Dads ‘N’ Lads Retreat was just that. From the time that my oldest was eight, we spent the weekend up at Camp Lebanon creating great memories. From the polar …

Enough already! No one will blame you for skipping tonight’s evening news or unplugging your Fox News app. Today’s headlines of terrorism, racial tensions, and corrupt politics are disruptive, disgusting, and depressing. And tomorrow’s news could be even worse! So, when life’s problems make you feel like screaming and shouting, do the “man thing.” Scream …
Could anything be better? There I was, sitting in a gorgeous Ranger boat on a pristine North Wood’s lake accompanied by a good friend and two beautiful women (one was mine!).
