ABOUT US
Founded in 1936, Camp Findley has a storied history as a place where groups and individuals can get away from their regular lives to a place of fun and excitement, relaxation and renewal. A part of the Findley Lake community, the camp is situated in the village on 150 acres of forest and waterfront with lodge style housing and facilities for indoor activities and gatherings.
​
In March 2018, the Camp Findley property was sold to new ownership, a local nonprofit. The new leadership team of The Camp at Findley, The Board of Directors, purchased the property with plans to continue to provide it as a destination for camps, retreats, weddings, and other gatherings. We had a vested interest in ensuring that Camp Findley continued its Christian ministry in Western New York and Western PA.
​
Since that time, the board has been developing the camp grounds and programming to be a place where people can experience a positive impact on their well-being: mind, body, and soul.
​
Mind: we are a place where guests may disconnect from their day-to-day lives and slow down.
Body: we serve healthful, whole foods, with an emphasis on local produce, and provide many recreational opportunities.
Spirit: we encourage and facilitate prayer and meditation in a natural setting
​
Our setting intentionally creates accessible spaces where guests can be immersed in the natural world, from our waterfront to our woodland trails, allowing our small slice of Creation to facilitate Christ's peace and renewal.
​
We are a place for fun, family, and friends. We are a place for rest and renewal.
The Board of Directors of The Camp at Findley is comprised of members from different denominations, and several local communities.
We have One vision: Spiritual transformation of lives through Christ’s love for every man, woman, and child. Our mission is to develop the camp to be a safe and inviting place for the community, with programming that encourages mental, physical, and spiritual growth in every individual.
