It has been a great run here at Lazy F! This is year 28 in this incredible place, and I look forward to the continued improvements and challenges yet ahead. My wife Heather and I were fortunate to raise our two kids, Chris and Megan, now both adults, at Lazy F. It has been a blessing to see the thousands of campers, guests, and staff who consider Lazy F to be their “home away from home.” God truly has called us to this place!
I am proud to have grown up in Minnesota and still follow all sports teams from Minnesota and still waiting for that elusive Viking Super Bowl victory. After graduating from Oregon State University, I moved around to different college campuses working in student affairs before returning to our summer camp roots by coming to Lazy F in 1996. In my free time I like to bicycle, hike, snowshoe, flood our ice skating rink, and cook.

Hey, I’m known around camp as Magpie! I started here at Lazy F in January 2022 and have been loving it ever since! I grew up in Eastern Illinois where I attended camps throughout my childhood. I graduated from Lincoln Christian University in 2021 with a degree in Biblical Studies and felt the call to work in camping full time. While at camp my passion for environmentalism and all things outdoor grew and grew. I believe the magic of camp is in learning and experiencing new things and I can’t wait to do that with you! When not at camp you can find me hiking with my dog, or working on my next craft project!

Hello, I’m Carol Secondi, the latest addition to the Lazy F camp! I was raised right here in the beautiful Kittitas Valley, where I raised my 3 kids.
I worked for the Ellensburg School District for 10 years then at CWU for another 10 years until COVID, Then decided to be a “snowbird” and travel to Yuma, Arizona but my family brought me back to Ellensburg to my 6 grandsons! In the Summer of 2024 I graduated with an Associates Degree in Event Planning.
I love any adventure and enjoy spending time in Mexico with my friends in December, and I am looking forward to meeting you here at Lazy F Camp.

Hi, I’m known around Camp as JAM. I’ve been working at camp for more than eight years. Four years as Lead Housekeeper then switched to Maintenance. I’m also the Archery Coordinator and will do other assignments when asked. I love working at camp surrounded by so much beauty, watching the excitement of the youth, making adult friends, and enjoying the change of the seasons. In addition to working at the camp, I regularly volunteer with my Kiwanis Club of Ellensburg and working around my home. Looking forward to seeing you at Lazy F.
