The End of an Era

Camp Horizon
Orange Springs

The minutes of the 1968 board meeting recorded that monthly income was $120 per month below the mortgage.  This is the last document in our collection.


Within two years Camp Horizon closed and the property was lost. The purchasers of the Orange Springs property maintain a camp there to this day with some original buildings largely unchanged.


Whether a camp was held in 1970 is unclear, but there was not camp in 1971.  Minutes of Evangelistic Horizons Unlimited, Inc show that a portion of the funds from the property sale was transferred to this new corporation that built a new Camp Horizon.


This final photo is dated 1970 (though it could be from Summer 1969).
