Meet the 2020 Summer Staff
Kenny and Jennifer Rigoulot and Family, Co-Directors
About us: Kenny is the Pastor of United Presbyterian Church in Cleburne and Jennifer teaches Pre K at a local Elementary school. Their children, Kennan (age 14), Brayden (age 12) and Grayson (age 9) are active in school, community and church activities. The Rigoulot family is passionate about Gilmont and its mission and ministry.
Our summer camp story began in May of 1999 when we were hired to be camp counselors. Having grown up in churches in Grace Presbytery there were many opportunities for our paths to cross, but it didn’t happen until staff training the summer after our high school graduation. After working as counselors for two summers, we each served in a variety of leadership roles before we were married in 2003. The summer of 2006 we returned to Gilmont with our one year old son to serve as co-directors. After living out of state and then in the Texas Panhandle, our family was excited to move to Cleburne in 2012 so we could be closer to family and Camp Gilmont! Since then, we have served the camp in many ways and all three of our children attend summer camps and retreats throughout the year. We believe that Gilmont is a special place to develop relationships with God and others. The summer camp program gives opportunities for faith, fellowship, and friendships to grow strong while spending a week in the piney woods of East Texas. Our family is excited to spend the summer at camp, the place where we first met and fell in love with each other and camp ministry. We always feel closer to God, creation, and others when we are at Gilmont!
