As a "Recognized Service Organization" of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod and the Northwest District, Camp Perkins' goal is to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ within the unique setting of outdoors ministry. Through this goal, our staff: Camp Perkins had it's 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 a year-round ministry in the 1980s as the first full-time staff was hired and the first winterized facility was completed. Camp Perkins has seen tremendous growth in the 1990s with the addition of many new program opportunities and facilities. An online tour of our facilities is available for you to view the camp site. Today, Camp Perkins hosts over 3000 guests annually through a variety of summer programs and year-round retreats.
