Silver Birch Ranch’s home campus has expanded to 100 acres and has about 50 buildings. Water no longer comes from the lake but is supplied by several wells. Our youth and family camps are often filled to capacity, and the year-round retreats are as large as our summer programs. The dream of having a one-year college was realized in the creation of Nicolet Bible Institute. The ministry, now decades old, continues fervently, driven “To Know Christ and To Make HIM Known.” Christian camping is an extremely effective and underused tool for the church to use in building the next generation of Christians. We feel that this tool is most effective when leaders who are involved with the students on a regular basis are able to spend time and build shared memories with them. The leaders get to see and hear the true struggles of their students in a week-long setting that removes them from the distractions of the “real world” and pulls them from their comfort zone. Silver Birch Ranch provides a safe environment for all of our guests and staff. Silver Birch Ranch offers the following activities: Horseback riding, rafting, swimming, archery, water tubing/skiing, boating, zip-line, climbing wall, hayrides, low ropes, disc golf, court based games (volleyball, basketball, tennis, tetherball, gaga ball, and 4 square), table games (ping pong, foosball, box hockey, and carpetball), as well as many other organized activities for everyone to enjoy.
