Eric Klein

Started with Luther Park Bible Camp (LPBC): On May 22nd, 2023, only one week before staff training! Crazy time to begin at camp, but also, as I keep saying, there is no better time to see how everything works at a new camp.

In my role: as the Executive Director, I oversee all the operations, programs, development, administration, and probably more at Luther Park. It is an absolute honor to be at the helm of an outdoor ministry site with such a beautiful and storied history. It is also such a joy to get to work with an amazing staff, board of directors, and many volunteers and supporters of Luther Park!

Geeks out over: coffee, the Milwaukee Brewers, college basketball, board games, the two best bands of all-time, The Replacements and Pavement, smoking meat, movies, Italian subs, fantasy/sci-fi novels, and oh so much more.

When it's not summer: I enjoy spending time with my wife, Allison, reading theology and fantasy books, exploring new restaurants, watching the Packers, Bucks, Wisconsin sports, doing fantasy sports, seeing live music, and visiting family.

Abby Vander Laan

Started with Luther Park Bible Camp (LPBC): I have been the Program Director here at Luther Park since March 2023.

In my role: I run all of the summer programming, plus the year-round programmed retreats like our famous Quilt Retreats! I also recruit and hire all of our fantastic summer staff. My favorite parts of this job are working with the counselors and campers and watching them grow over the summer. I love seeing kids (and counselors!) trying new activities, developing friendships, and creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Geeks out over: Jordan Spieth golf, Kate Martin and Caitlin Clark basketball, garlic bread, Taylor Swift, and getting 5000 points while playing Geoguessr.

When it's not summer: you can find me golfing, watching the Chicago Bears, or any form of women’s basketball (but especially go Hawkeyes, Valkyries, Laces, and Fever!), reading, running, playing games with friends, or spending time with my family, including my triplet brothers.

Liz Caya

Started with Luther Park Bible Camp (LPBC): I started at Luther Park in February of 2022 as the Associate Program Director, and wore a whole lot of different hats as we went through some major staffing changes during that year. In 2024, I moved into my current role, Program and Office Administrator.

In my role: I get to manage retreat planning and communication, camp registration, and other office manager duties such as managing the calendar, processing donations, and ordering supplies. If you call the office or contact the information email, odds are you’ll get to speak with me! I enjoy being the first line of communication with Luther Park and helping everyone have the most successful time at camp that we can provide.

Geeks out over: I geek out over board games, crossword puzzles, songs with interesting time signatures, and competition reality shows

When it's not summer: Outside of summer, I like live music, horror books (but not movies!), playing guitar, and watching football- especially if it’s the Green Bay Packers
