Meet a Staff Member: Hayley Peterson
On-Site Sales Manager

Camp is excited to welcome to Hayley to the full-time staff team! Growing up nearby in Upsala, Camp has always been like a second home for Hayley.  After graduating from NDSU with a major in Business Management, she interned for Cru and gained a passion for ministry. It is that passion that led her back to Camp Lebanon. Her favorite part of her job is working in the Trading Post and she also loves being in the business field with the purpose of bringing others to Christ. She has answered sixteen get-to-know-you questions.
