Rev. Tim Snart The year was 1990. The Simpsons debuted on FOX and Rev. Tim Snart debuted at Camp Wyoming, both became instant hits. Tim was serving as the Pastor for Sharon Presbyterian and West Point Presbyterian and recruited youth to attend Camp Wyoming. In 1994, Tim was called to be the Pastor at the Coal Valley Presbyterian Church in Coal Valley, IL. Here he continues to promote Camp Wyoming to youth. Tim provides general leadership for the church and teaches an adult Sunday School class and Bible Study. Tim grew up in Green Lake, WI and graduated from Green Lake Public High School. Tim’s father was the Principal and Tim fondly refers to himself as a “PK” (Principal’s Kid). Tim worked a year as a Shipping Clerk prior to enrolling in college at the University of Wisconsin, OshKosh. Here he was a business major earning his degree in Operations Management in 1983. He then went on to be the Director of Respite Care for United Cerebral Palsy. The Fall of 1986 took Tim to Louisville, KY where he enrolled in the Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary. Tim’s first pastoral assignment was with the Madison Presbyterian and Jeffersonville Presbyterian Churches in Madison, IN. It is here that one particular member continually stood out. This member would later become his wife, Lori. They were married in 1989. Tim and Lori have two children, Ben who is 16 and Jennifer who is 10. Both kids enjoy attending Camp Wyoming each summer. Tim and Lori enjoyed an Alaskan cruise (something he thought he’d never see) in 2002 for their anniversary. Tim enjoys spending time with his family, boating, fishing and woodworking. His favorite meal is a sirloin steak and baked potato. The last book he read was Shoeless Joe Jackson and the last movie he saw was Evan Almighty. Tim’s greatest joys in life are serving the Lord and spending time with his family. Tim likes the enthusiasm of the Camp Wyoming staff and enjoys working with them. Tim has seen the Camp Wyoming program evolve throughout the years as he’s spent a week each summer volunteering as a Director. This summer Tim volunteered his time to participate in the Resident Pastor program. This program encourages Pastors to spend a week at Camp interacting with the campers and participating in activities. Tim feels the addition of the Resident Pastor program is a great idea. Thank you Tim for keeping Camp Wyoming a part of your Summer tradition!
