For our first-ever family camp, we are inviting campers of all ages to join us for a weekend of faith, fun, and community.
​
At this camp, campers can experience low ropes courses, archery, fishing, nature play, an escape room, and more.
​
With an overarching theme of creating community and family experiences with the Holy in nature.

"Life is all about Plan B." This is Lisa Engelken's life motto. When you think have everything planned, organized, and ready to go-God call's us elsewhere. Lisa is the mother of four beautiful children, five grandchildren. Her life is wonderfully crazy. In the midst of the chaos of raising children, Lisa was called into ministry to help share story the people of God's faithful stories-not to just children but to their families.
Lisa is a commissioned minister in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) serving on the Tall Oaks Board. Lisa has served as Director for Day Camps and Grandparents camp for Tall Oaks for many years. She is excited to explore our faith together in the sacred space outdoors at Tall Oaks for the first family camp!
Hello Families!
I have directed and/or counseled almost every type of camp here at Tall Oaks! My mom and I are looking forward to bringing camps to Families and encouraging all ages to participate together!
