Fortune Lake has been a part of my life for almost 40 years (YIKES!) and I look forward to 40 more! I started at Fortune Lake as a Villager, was a Venturer, High School Helper (now known as LIT), worked on staff, led and attended Synod Youth Council retreats…the list goes on and on.

I believe whole heartedly in the Fortune Lake experience and attribute much of who I am today to the experiences I had at camp. Is there one staff member who really touched your life at Fortune Lake? When you are facing a tough decision, do you stop and think “What would <insert superstar staffer name here> do?” I still do that today.

The reason I became part of the Tenacious 200 is to help a place that has helped me so much continue to help others. There aren’t many people that can say one place has been a constant in their life, helps guide their decisions today, gave them some of the best friends you could have asked for and a support system that is never ending…and is kind of everywhere you look!

I am so grateful for Fortune Lake, the opportunities it has offered me, the relationships I have created there and it gives me great joy to see OUR camp providing those opportunities for another 90 years due to my contributions to the Tenacious 200!


Thank you, Robbie, for your generous monthly support of Fortune Lake through the T200!
