Camp Perkins

Camp Perkins

Camp Perkins had its beginning in 1954 when the Lutheran Layman's League (LLL), the Lutheran Women's Missionary League (LWML), and the Walther League (WL) contracted a lease agreement with the US Forest Service to secure thirteen acres of land in the Stanley Basin, now known as the Sawtooth National Recreation Area (SNRA). The camp became year-round in the 1980s as the first full-time staff was hired and the first winterized facility was completed. [http://www.campperkins.org/aboutcamp/about_camp.cfm]

Camp Perkins is owned and operated by thirty-five Lutheran congregations located in southern Idaho, Utah, and Oregon. One Delegate from each member church is appointed by their congregation to elect the Board of Directors who oversees the mission and ministry of the camp as well as the year-round staff.
