Executive Director: Darren Duncalfe

The man. The big cheese. Darren is an incredible team-player and an integral member of our crew here at Charis Camp. Our Executive Director oversees our camp and our staff with his spiritual guidance and leadership qualities. You can't not love this guy! Darren is responsible for helping churches and individuals connect with the camp. If you have any questions or concerns pertaining to the overarching ministry of Charis Camp or are just looking to get connected, Darren is all ears (and smiles!)

Assistant Director of Business Administration: Clarinda Herfst

Coffee and Essential Oils will be found when Clarinda is crunching the numbers in the Camp Office. She makes sure the right people get paid and the accounts are in order. When not at the Office she can be found grinning ear to ear with her grandchildren and driving her big, awesome school bus!

Director of Discipleship: Marty Bennett

Marty loves journeying with people! That makes him a great fit as the guy who looks after the spiritual and emotional health of the Staff and Summer Team. Marty oversees Summer and off season camps and programs. He has a special focus on follow up with camp staff and campers. His aim is to help them take their next steps in following Jesus and make sure they are part of a local Church.

Food Services Director: Tom Babcock

If you like food, you're going to love Tom. This guy knows how to cook up a storm and is passionate about his ministry here at Charis Camp! Catering to the needs and taste buds of many, Tom's servant heart is evident in each plate he prepares. Give him a shout if you have any questions about our food services! (And while you're at it, you should ask him about his homemade squash bread recipe. Mmmmmm.)

Facilities Director:  Brian Piccioni

Out of all of our staff here at Charis Camp, Brian is undoubtedly the most bearded individual. Brian is our full time man in charge of the upkeep and maintenance of the camp and its grounds. He ensures that whenever a new group arrives the site is clean, beautiful, and ready for our guests. If something breaks he's the guy that'll get it fixed. If something is dirty, he's the guy that will make sure it gets clean. He is the guy.

Director of Advancement: Krista Bennett

​Krista joins our team with a special passion to connect people with Charis Camp. Her job includes (amongst other things) connecting with churches, schools, and other groups that might be interested in using the facilities at Charis, planning events and finding volunteers who might be interested in coming out to lend a hand at the camp. 

Guest Services Director: Cristal Koop

If you ever give us a call, you'll be blessed with the friendly and helpful voice of our Guest Services Director, Cristal! She oversees booking groups and events at our camp. So, if you're interested in spending some time up at Charis... give her a call!  She will be the smiling face that will greet you at our main office window. Cristal also Manages our Gift & Candy Shoppe with gusto!

Housekeeping: Anita Babcock

Anita is our sweet, busy-bee housekeeper! She is the most efficient cleaner you'll ever meet. Her efficiency is only out-paced by her high standards.  She's so efficient that she has spare time to help her hubby in the kitchen with meal preparation and services! Anita loves to make our guests feel warm, welcomed and comfortable.
