Mark's family has been going to Trout over the years since it opened in 1947. They love working at Trout and spending time with the Serve Teams seeing new and existing friends. Volunteering is one way we can live out Acts 1:8 with our support of Trout's important ministry. When we're not at camp, we enjoy our time at Westwood Church in Chanhassen, family, car collecting, and other hobbies.

Host - Mark & Mandy Johnson
Mandy works for Converge North Central at Director of Placement, and Mark is in his second career after teaching Physical Education for 32 years, he now spends his time with his son in the house painting business. Both of our kids have had multiple positions at camp, and it has allowed them to be good leaders today. As we approach retirement, we are already finding that we love to volunteer at Trout. We have seen God work in camps in mighty ways, and it is good to help prepare the facility to allow that work to happen!
