Brian Smoker — Camp Director
Brian Smoker and FamilyBrian’s love for Christian Camping began during his teenage years as he attended and served at a camp owned by his local church.  Upon graduating from Appalachian Bible College with a BS in Theology/Christian Camping, he continued his education with a MBA with a Non Profit Concentration from Alvernia College in Reading, PA.

Prior to joining the NEF staff, Brian served in the role of camp director in both Pennsylvania and Colorado.  He has also traveled the country visiting over 40 camps in 25 US States in addition to trekking the globe to visit camps in Canada, Uruguay, Chile, Argentina, and South Africa.

An avid outdoorsman, Brian’s hobbies of whitewater rafting, rock climbing, downhill skiing, snowshoeing, and  mountain biking are mimicked by his five children on the camp grounds of White Mountain Ranch.  These activities occur under the watchful eye of his wife and ministry companion, Leina, who enjoys scrapbooking all the families adventures!
