Chapel-Lodge Project

For several years, our staff has been praying for wisdom as we consider ministry growth. Over these last few months we've been working with an architect on building plans, and we're excited to announce the first construction project of this nature on Trail Ridge property in over 20 years! God has continued to work in the hearts of people and provide for our present needs. This multi-functional building will meet needs that our current buildings are no longer able to accommodate, while also laying the groundwork for future growth and adaptability.

Summer Camp 2025

Our theme for this summer is "Under Construction" with 1 Corinthians 3:9 as our key verse. When you visit camp, you'll notice that our property is actually under construction! We're very excited for the opportunities that a new Chapel and office building will provide for our ministry. Just like the new building going up, God is building and refining each of us—brick by brick, day by day, into something greater for His glory. This summer our focus will be on growth, transformation, and the understanding that each of us is a work in progress, continually shaped by God's hands.
Youth and Family Camp registration will open up January 2025.

Upcoming Events: Quirky Hobbies Retreat

Ladies-mark your calendars! Finish those sewing, scrapbook, and art projects you’ve been putting off by joining us at the first ever bring-your-own supplies crafting getaway at Trail Ridge Camp! The Quirky Hobbies Retreat will be held October 17-19. Come for just a day, or stay the whole time-you decide!

Bring a friend! Invite ladies from your church, neighbors, your book club, or anyone else who could use a few peaceful days out at Trail Ridge getting those crafting projects done!

Upcoming Events: Lumberjack Weekend

Calling all men and boys-- join us for Trail Ridge Lumberjack Days this October! One of our main post-summer projects is clearing out dead trees throughout camp. With a project of this size, many hands make light work! We are looking for volunteers with skills in running a chain saw, those that can split and stack wood, and people willing to haul branches. We'll plan on starting work at 9:00 AM on Friday morning the 25th (breakfast beforehand at 8:00 AM) and wrap up around 4 PM on Saturday, the 26th. If you are available for both days, or even just for part of a day, we can use you! 

Upcoming Events: Day of Prayer

Have you noticed the condition of our nation? Have you observed how far we have turned from God? Are you concerned over the state of the family? Do you long for churches to become places of powerful preaching? Come join us at Trail Ridge Camp in Hillsboro, Wisconsin, for a Day of Prayer on Saturday, November 2. We'll be challenged from the Scripture regarding prayer, and putting prayer into practice. We’ll be praying for our nation, our state, the family and the church. Invite your friends to Day of Prayer at Trail Ridge. Due to the national elections behind held that next week, this event will have a special focus on our country and it's elected officials. 

Upcoming Events: Christmas Singspiration

This holiday season, you are invited to a Christmas Singspiration at Trail Ridge Camp! Saturday evening join us for a time of singing, instrumental specials, and Christmas themed scripture readings. We will conclude with dessert fellowship. Mark your calendar for December 14, and invite your friends, family, or anyone who you think could use some encouragement!

When campers come to Trail Ridge, we prioritize daily devotions on a personal and group level. We understand that back at home, it can be difficult to keep up those good habits of Bible study. When spiritual decisions are made at camp, we know its important to continually do our part to disciple campers. That's why we want to offer campers opportunities to GROW!
