50 YEARS OF MINISTRY
Over 50 years ago, Presbyterians in Nebraska began searching for a location to develop a camp and conference center to serve the youth and adults of Eastern Nebraska. A special Camp Site Committee was appointed by the Synod of Nebraska to find a suitable property. The original committee consisted of:
- Rev. Thomas Huxtable (Chairman)
- Rev. Keith Delap
- Rev. John Swearingin
- Rev. Donald Proett
- Rev. Archie Marston
- Mr. Lloyd Blair
- Mr. Karl Loerch
- Mr. James Moore
These individuals walked many acres of land before finding a suitable site. Originally, 175 acres were purchased from the Herbert J. Jurgens family farm.
Development of the site began and after 50 years, Calvin Crest is fulfilling Rev. Tom Huxtable's dream of becoming the "finest camp in Nebraska".
