Glen Eyrie began as the estate of William Jackson Palmer, founder of several railroads and the city of Colorado Springs. It is now home to the camp and conference ministry of The Navigators, with a mission to inspire, build, and encourage those who shape lives through the journeys of life. The peaceful, beautiful grounds provide a place of rest, rejuvenation, and a reminder of the importance of stillness and prayer. Glen Eyrie Group offers Christ-centered adult and family conferences, historic Castle tours, English teas, and other events throughout the year.

Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
75 years
What is your primary product or service?
As a worldwide ministry, our primary business is spiritual development. Locally, we offer Christian conferences, retreats, and summer camps.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
The Navigators' founder, Dawson Trotman, was a lumberyard worker in California when he began teaching Christian study methods to young sailors in the early 1930s. His small group of sailors went on to teach other sailors, who passed on their knowledge to still others. The pattern of life-on-life mentoring eventually grew into a worldwide movement whose members named it The Navigators.
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
The Navigators' ministry distinctive is our commitment to one-to-one, generational mentoring: not only teaching people, but training them to teach others what they have learned.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
Multiple ministry locations within each of 105 countries worldwide. Within the United States, representatives on most major college campuses and military bases.
