Mission and Background
Established in 1941, Wabanna Camp and Retreat Center is a non-profit, non-denominational Christian ministry located in Edgewater, Maryland, on a 23-acre point where the Rhode and West Rivers converge into the Chesapeake Bay. Wabanna’s ministry encompasses two primary methods of outreach: a summer residential and day camp for boys and girls running from early June to mid-August, and a year-round retreat ministry offering week and weekend rentals in support of the local church.
Throughout the years, Camp Wabanna has remained a ministry that promotes Christian belief and lifestyle as the standard for existence. The “camping” experience continues to be the model for the application and promotion of these principles, helping to achieve the goal of providing an environment that directs people towards the love of Jesus Christ.
The current executive director of Camp Wabanna, Neil Luebbers and his family, Jenny, Maddy, and Ella, all have a heart for this ministry and are members of Belcroft.
