TYLER AMES,
​
CAMP DIRECTOR 
​
Picture
​​Hello! My name is Tyler Ames. I am excited and humbled to be the Camp Director here at Lakeshore Center coming in with 8 years of experience working in outdoor ministries. I started as the Director in Spring of 2022.
 I grew up in Duluth, Minnesota near the shores of Lake Superior and the North Woods. 
This is where my love for the outdoors and ministry began. I went to Bethel University where I got my Bachelors in Missional Ministries and am currently working on my Master's Degree at Luther Seminary in Child, Youth and Family Ministries.
​In my off time you can try and find me playing sports, being active, listening to nerdy theology podcasts or just being outside. I am excited to be a part of the awesome team here at Lakeshore Center at Okoboji! 

​Tyler can be reached at 712-337-3313 or Email tyler@ilovelakeshore.org

​Kevin Hale,
​Head Chef

Hello from Chef Kevin! My family and I settled in Iowa in 1994. I love to fish, camp, and cook! I've been in the food service industry for 40 years. Through the years, I enjoyed several wins in the chocolate classic and chili cookoff. I also helped pioneer the wild game feed. I was the chef at the nostalgic Inn Resort for 10 years, then was called to food service at a Christian Retreat Center called Bison Ranch in the mountains of Arizona. My family and I were called back to Iowa after 4 years, where I led in food service for another 10 years. As times are gearing back up, I have been given the opportunity to prepare the midweek meals at First Presbyterian Church. I bring a positive attitude through food hospitality so that people are filled both body and soul. I am so blessed to be part of the team at Lakeshore Center at Okoboji and look forward to great things to come!
