"The purpose of Great Rivers Region camping is to bring children, youth, and adults a step closer to Christ."

Lake Springfield Baptist Camp is located in Central Illinois, just South of Springfield.  The camp, situated on Lake Springfield, provides summer camping programs and facilities for conferencing and retreats for the whole region.  The lodge and cabins provide housing and services for approximately 125 people.  A variety of water sports are offered - boating, canoeing, paddleboats, and swimming.  Provision is made for indoor and outdoor games as well as crafts of many kinds.  The camp also offers winterized facilities that can accommodate 50 people overnight. 

In 2007, Aaron & Callie Stanley became the new managers for Lake Springfield.  Both have hands-on experience as camping staff and volunteering at LSBC.  Callie has spent the past 4 years as the Assistant Manager under Kathy Hutchins, and last year Aaron spent the fall living at the camp prior to their wedding.  The couple was married in Lightbody Conference Center in December and currently attend Cherry Hills Baptist Church.  They look forward to sharing their passion for camping with students and adults alike!
