| Additional Information: | In 1920 Fred Luderus, a baseball player for the Philadelphia Phillies and friend of Fred Cy Williams, purchased the land on Range Line Lake and built a main lodge, four cabins and living quarters for his parents. The resort was named HyMont. The Luderus family lost the resort to bankruptcy and it was purchased by the Roth family and renamed Rothmoor Lodge. In 1946 the North Wisconsin District Convention of the Lutheran Church purchased the resort and renamed it Camp Luther. The facilities have been expanded substantially since the 1940s. |
