Message From The Director

I have been coming to Camp Hardtner since early childhood. Church family weekends. Summer camp. Retreats throughout the year. Weddings. You name it!

What I found here was a place free from judgment where I felt comfortable and accepted. Even now, at camp I am free to be the best version of myself.

What a gift Camp Hardtner is to so many people–including myself. After all this time my heart still flutters as I drive down the entrance road. I am blessed every morning to wake up, look outside, and remember “I work at Camp Hardtner!”

Whatever the event that brings you to Camp Hardtner, the staff and I hope your time will be filled with delight and that this place becomes as special to you as it is to us.

Sincerely,

Daniel Chapman

Director
