I have gone to this camp ever since I was in 4th grade. I attended every year. I was a counselor for many years. Camp Michigamme has been very special to me and my family.

I met great friends and have many memories going to Camp Michigamme. It would be a true heartbreak if other kids did not get to experience camp life.

We just can’t let this go to private ownership and possibly lose the sacred foot print of the property.

My children went to the camp for years. They still to this day talk about how they looked forward every year to go to camp. They also have friends that they still talk with to this day. 30 years later! We NEED this type of positive experience in the lives of our children especially during these difficult times.

Summer Camp is a extremely important part of anyone's life. It brings so much joy, being together and meeting New possibly life time friends!.
It brings out each individuals moment of encouragement to be away from home and to experience the true beauty of the outdoors.
It gives people a chance to try new things that they feel uncomfortable in doing, plus accomplishments are truly rewarding!..👍🙏😃🙏👍.

This was a place looked forward to every summer when I was growing up. It later became a place where my husband and I were counselors, along with family members. It was a beautiful place where campers could experience God’s nature, love and grow in their faith. I fully support alternatives to selling and closing Camp Michigamme. Please Bishop do the right thing, this camp is very meaningful to a lot of people.

I support this petition and respectfully ask church leadership to give the committee more time to explore options before making a final decision. This camp has been a blessing many people over the last 100 years and such an important decision deserves a thorough and transparent process. Once it’s sold, there is no going back.

This beautiful and natural setting has brought young people to Jesus for generations. It can continue to bring our youth to Jesus and transform lives for generations yet to come.

Many formative hours were spent surrounded by God's beauty and spiritual people. Music, fire, water, nature at its finest should remain available to future generations.
