About Kirkmont Center
A PLACE FOR ALL PEOPLE IN ALL SEASONS
An independent non-profit organization founded by the Presbyterian Church USA in 1963. Today we are a camp and retreat center serving public and private school groups, non-profit organizations, youth groups, sports teams, music and art associations, churches and faith based groups of all denominations, families, businesses, and individuals. Our goal is to provide you with a renewing camp, outdoor education, or retreat experience.
Kirkmont – “church on the mountain” – is located in Logan County near Bellefontaine, OH and consists of 278 acres nestled among gently rolling hills and pine groves. The site boasts a natural fen, two ponds (one for nature study and one for canoeing and fishing), cliffs and natural ravines. Kirkmont Center is classified by naturalists as one of the most unique parcels of land in the State of Ohio, and offers many opportunities for school groups, universities, and adult education.
MISSION STATEMENT
Kirkmont Center is dedicated to outdoor experiences of discovery, learning, and wonder, to the end that individuals and groups grow in their relationship to God, one another, and the earth.
Kirkmont Memories Project
Created by Valerie Kronson for her Capstone project. Valerie is a senior at The Ohio State University, a Kirkmont volunteer, former summer staffer and former summer camper. Valerie has interviewed and surveyed as many Kirkmont alumni and friends as possible to find a collective story of the history of camp and hear about different perceptions of the value of camp, what camp means to them, and what we see for our future.
We hope that as you view this project you can also feel some of that nostalgia and appreciation for our Kirkmont family.
