Welcome Emma Colicci, Our New Program Coordinator!
A Word from Emma:
"My name is Emma Colicci and I am the new Program Coordinator at Camp Eder! I’m super excited to join this camp community and am looking forward to building relationships and getting to plan and implement programming. I’m excited to join this community because of how it is small and close knit and has such a heart to help people grow in their relationship with Jesus in the outdoors.
I fell in love with camp ministry at HoneyRock Camp in Wisconsin. I have always loved kids and teaching and I also have a deep love of the outdoors and all things in creation. So when I experienced my first summer as a camp counselor, I immediately loved it. I love that camp ministry combines teaching with the outdoors and providing purposeful challenge in a close community. And I love getting to show people who Jesus is!
Before coming to Camp Eder, I spent the past summer as the Elementary Coordinator at HoneyRock Camp. It was a summer full of training and pouring into college aged staff, dreaming up and implementing camper programming and doing the behind the scenes of all that happens at camp! I also spent the past school year as an intern at Ligonier Camp getting to be very involved with retreat ministry. And I can’t wait to have new experiences here at Camp Eder!
Some fun things to know about me are that in my free time I love running, rock climbing and hiking! Anything outdoors and I am a huge fan. A fun fact is one time I chipped my tooth while ice climbing in New Hampshire! The Lord has gifted me with natural abounding energy so I don’t drink coffee but I love a good cup of chamomile tea especially in the fall and winter. I also love to bake and have the biggest sweet tooth!
I can’t wait to become a part of the Camp Eder community and to meet you all!"
Help us lift her up in prayer and support!

Retreat Facilities
Retreats provide the opportunity to engage with others, enjoy the beauty of nature, or simply rest in silence. There is something special about time away from the distractions of life and the busyness of school and work that reinvigorates your spirit, renews your mind, and gives an opportunity for fresh perspective. We know there’s a lot you have to plan; that’s why we make the process of picking a location easy by providing a high-quality facility, with tons of options to choose from so you can customize it to your needs, all at a great price. It’s all part of our mission to help you thrive.
