Karen Giesen, a Camp Peniel veteran camper and current board member will profile a different staffmember each month. The year 1959 to 1960 was momentous in the history of Camp Peniel and in the lives of Dale and Kathy Weagant.
Dale remembers it vividly.
That encounter shaped the rest of his life. Each summer Dale rode a train to Livingston to attend camp on the leased Double Lake property. An old wrench on the wall in the Trading Post commemorates his 1953 Colorado Adventure Trip. Later Dale counseled four summers while he attended Dallas Bible Institute. When he graduated in 1959, Chief hired him to run the Houston Boys' Clubs.
