      <image:title>Board of Directors - Mary Lee Gens</image:title>
      <image:caption>Hello. My name is Mary Lee Gens from Baudette, MN. Most people know me by my nickname which is Ducky. I’ll tell you the story sometime. I am the wife of Dave Gens for 50 years, have 6 grown children and 8 grandchildren with one on the way. I accepted the Lord Jesus into my life as a young child and became very serious about serving Him when I was 16. Music is a big part of my life and I’ve led worship for many years. I am also currently the pastor of Church of the Living Water in Baudette. I was introduced to Camp Dellwater over 24 years ago and have been serving as cook for about 22 years for a couple of weeks of youth camp. The camp has grown tremendously over the years but its original vision of being a place where people can come to meet with the Lord is still faithfully carried on today. It is a very special place to host youth camps, retreats, family reunions or just a weekend away. There Is a special peaceful presence at the camp which provides visitors of all ages a chance to spend those special get-away moments with the Lord. Please come join us at Camp Dellwater and enjoy the pristine lake and grounds and especially the hospitality of the people who serve here. The Lord Bless You!</image:caption>

They have eightchildren: Sarah, Hannah, Isaiah, Naomi, Mary, Leah, and Sam. Rachel, Isaiah’s twin, was still born and is buried at Oak Hills Cemetery. Their kids live in Alaska, Massachusetts, California and in Bemidji. They have 18 grandchildren. Jan and Reed met at a Christian Camp in Northern Wisconsin in 1975. While they were raising their family in Alaska, they were very much involved in Bible Camps in Alaska.    Jan and Reed are grateful for Christian camping experiences and consider it a rich blessing to now be involved with beautiful Camp Dellwater!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Board of Directors - Austin Graser</image:title>
      <image:caption>Hello, my name is Austin Graser, I grew up in Pinewood Minnesota, but after getting married in 2014, my wife and I have resided in Bemidji ever since. Since sixth grade in high school, my heart has always had a place at Camp Dellwater. All the way from being water baptized at Dellwater lake, along with the many activities and teachings within the camp. My faith in Jesus today is largely tied to Camp Dellwater. Being mission minded and with very much a servants heart, God has always called me to not only be in service to other people, but help the organizations I serve grow.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Board of Directors - Patricia Kabus</image:title>
      <image:caption>Hello. My name is Patty Kabus. I have been married to Jerry Kabus for the past 27 years, and we live in Punta Gorda Florida for the winter, and split our time between Balsam Lake, Wisconsin and Lake Dellwater, where we have a family cabin. We have 2 grown children and 7 grown grandchildren. I accepted the Lord Jesus into my life as a young child, and served teaching 5 Day Clubs as a teenager. My Father was involved with Camp Dellwater since before its inception, as a close friend of Larry Erie, they along with a few others built Camp Dellwater back in the early 1970's. As a teenager, I spent many weeks working to help clear land where the camp sits today. I have taught Sunday School and Youth Group, and was on a worship team for much of my adult life. In 2007, my Father, who was still on the camp board at that time, asked if I was interested in joining the board of Camp Dellwater. I said yes, and 17 years later, I am still serving on the board, most of that time as Treasurer. It is important to me, that Camp Dellwater remains as a place to meet Jesus. We are always looking for people to partner with us in this ministry, whether that means spiritually (by praying for the camp and the people who come here each summer) financially through your gifts, or physically (by volunteering at camp). I look forward to partnering with you!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Board of Directors - Cody &amp; Claire Huseth</image:title>
      <image:caption>Greetings, we have been married for ten years. We have two boys. Our family started in central MN where Cody was a traveling heavy equipment technician for mining. Claire was and still is a dental assistant. About three years ago we moved up to northern MN. We joined church at Country Faith, where we are part of the administration team for youth and volunteer with Sunday school. We came to know about Camp Dellwater when our oldest son attended with the church. Cody has volunteered with Dellwater and really felt a calling to help advance the kingdom of God through this ministry. We are new to the board of directors but are so excited to see what God has in store for Camp Dellwater.</image:caption>
