Our Story
MiCamp Trust stands on a legacy built by extraordinary individuals who embraced the vision God gave them and carried it forward over the years. Each of our campsites has a remarkable origin story that reflects God’s goodness and grace.
MiCamp Trust started with Lake Taupo Christian Camp and grew by welcoming Ruapehu in 2007 and Lake Whakamaru Christian Camp in 2012. In 2013, the organisation was rebranded as MiCamp Trust to reflect a growing family and community, creating a place where God’s message of love can continue to be shared through our leadership, staff and volunteers.
Over the years, many generous donations have been made, and hard work has gone into the development of the camp. Today, across all our campsites, we are blessed to have the ability to host thousands of people per year, bringing the word of God to life through our events, programs, and shared experiences at camp. Our programmes and venues help to build character and confidence, while sharing the message of Christ to all ages.
Lastly, we would like to acknowledge the numerous individuals; Tom and Mavis Lind, Robert Laidlaw, Houlton Forlong, Laurence Forlong, Frank Stewart, Dave Inglis, Peter Alexander, Peter and Sheila Gavet, Neville Rout, Vin Hyde, Neil Gerraghty, Cedric Eden, Bob Mossop, Rod McCracken, Edwin Price, David Berry and many many others. They have all dedicated themselves to turning MiCamp into the organization that it has become today.
