Cowen’s leaders want to position the camp to become far more intentional about developing leaders for today and tomorrow. Our nation, our homes, schools, businesses and public institutions cry out for leadership, principled leadership, honest leadership, biblically-based leadership. Camp Cowen wants to be used of God to address this leadership challenge. You can help make this vision a reality. The new Vision is to establish a Leadership Training Center at Camp Cowen. Due to the expansion in recent years, Camp Cowen is now able to accommodate over 370 people. Adding the leadership training component will help keep the camp running at a fuller capacity throughout the year. The Sunny Day Leadership and Activity Center will have three large classrooms for trainings and a gymnasium for community development. Trainees can incorporate their leadership training into meaningful experiences while at camp.
