What is the Friends of Kirkmont Fund?
Established in 1999, the Friends of Kirkmont Fund helps maintain and improve the facilities so that a safe and comfortable environment is provided for the many groups and individuals who participate in our programs and use the buildings and grounds. Many of the original and subsequent structures will soon be 45 years old and need to be repaired, re-built, or replaced. The newer facilities need maintenance on structures, plumbing, electrical, and heating systems. The land needs constant care, as we groom nature trails and protect special wildlife habitats and the Adena Archeological Dig Site. Because Kirkmont Center is committed to serve all people, the buildings, restrooms, and some nature trails need to be made accessible. All of this is expensive! This fund-raising effort was organized to support needed maintenance projects.

Owned and operated by The Miami Presbytery, Presbyterian Church, USA, Kirkmont Center is open to people of all faiths and denominations, businesses, non- profit agencies, and public or private schools. Kirkmont Center also serves the Cincinnati, Maumee Valley, and Scioto Valley Presbyteries, and is located on 277 beautiful acres of widely varied land in Logan County, near Bellefontaine, Ohio. A 40-acre central activity area is surrounded by open fields and mature forests. Wildlife is abundant. Kirkmont Center seeks to be ‘A Place for All People in All Seasons.’ Our ministry focus embraces all God’s children from a wide variety of places and expenews is good!
Accommodations for weekend or mid-week events for churches (including denominations other than Presbyterian), businesses, schools, non-profit agencies, and other organizations include: Goodrich Lodge, Dunaway Lodge, Croft House, 16 Cabents, Shelter House, Nature Center, and Owens Pavilion. Residential programs are offered during every season of the year. Kirkmont’s hospitality staff hosts a wide variety of groups with meals, lodging and audiovisual equipment needs.
Exciting recreation, education, and spiritual growth opportunities are offered for both youth and adults from June to August each year. Christian Education is an integral part of the summer camp experience. Worship is as subtle as a walk in God’s natural surroundings, as personal as time spent walking the Cretan Labyrinth or Westminster Prayer Trail, or as powerful as an evening vesper service at one of the outdoor chapels.
Unique learning experiences for school groups are available for both residential and day-long programs which can be tailored to meet a wide variety of curriculum requirements. Outdoor resources include a Low Ropes Challenge Course, more than 6 miles of groomed nature trails, a fen, marsh, ponds, and deep ravines. The Nature Center has been renovated and expanded to include a new bird-viewing area, an outdoor turtle habitat, and updated restroom/shower areas.
