Camp Livingston was started in 1920 on 18 acres in Indian Hill, Ohio on the site of the Helen Trounstine Camp. H. S. Livingston established the camp as a memorial for his only son, Lt. Robert Krohn Livingston. Robert Krohn Livingston, was a decorated frontline serviceman from World War I who succumbed at 24 years of age in the influenza epidemic of 1918. Livingston's father sought to establish the summer camp where children could experience growth and maturation in a trusting, caring environment. He equipped the site with barracks style buildings and funded the conversion of the land to athletic fields. The Livingston Lodge is a historic landmark located in Indian Hill on north Given Road. This facility was once the recreation hall for the camp.
Nestled deep in the rolling, wooded hills of beautiful southeastern Indiana, the Robert Krohn Livingston Memorial Camp offers an unmatched summer experience for children and teens. Camp Livingston has always provided a safe and nurturing environment where campers gain self esteem and confidence, and form lasting friendships with their cabin and unit friends, all within a fun and exciting Jewish atmosphere. Everything that we do at Camp Livingston is designed with fun in mind.
