Volunteer ~ Erik Liljegren

Erik has been a familiar face at Camp Wyoming ever since he was a little tot attending You & Me Camp with his parents.  Erik continues to frequent the camp by volunteering for programmed retreats such as Wintertainment and Confirmation Retreats. 

Erik grew up in LeClaire, Iowa and was an active youth in the Our Savior Presbyterian Church and Camp Wyoming.  Erik graduated from Pleasant Valley High School in Bettendorf, and pursued a degree in Family Services from the University of Northern Iowa.  After graduating from UNI, Erik felt the call for ministry and is finishing his second year at the University of Dubuque Theological Seminary.  Erik currently serves as the Student Pastor at First Presbyterian in Hazelton, Iowa.  When Erik has free time, he likes to read, play the guitar, ride his bike and go trout fishing. 

Erik will be opening a new chapter of his life this Winter  when he and Tracey Chard unite in marriage.  Erik met Tracey (Tracey came to Camp Wyoming from Australia to fill the International staff position) when the two of them served as counselors during the summer of 2004.  Erik is thankful for the experiences at Camp Wyoming and is always encouraging any youth he encounters to attend. 

Thank you Erik for your love and passion of Camp Wyoming.
