Camp Director

  DeLyne Knox has been involved with Camp Savio since its inception. She first began as Youth Minister at St. Patrick Catholic Church, and with the help of her sisters, grew the group to 30 kids. After that first year, DeLyne joined the Camp leadership team where she quickly became known as "the one who does the t-shirts" (and other marketing materials). She is excited to share her faith with the youth, and although she's always had strong people in her life showing her the faith, feels we don't give young people enough credit for being able to understand the tough stuff. Camp Savio is just that place. She loves seeing kids leave Camp on fire for their faith and return the next year with more friends, or even joining the staff! DeLyne works full time in Retail Marketing. She and her husband Troy have been married for 30 years and have 2 children, and one Granddaughter. She loves going to movies and spending time with her extended family.

  Jeni Doolittle is a wife and mother of 6.  She has a great love for the Holy Rosary and her relationship with our Mother Mary.  She enjoys the ever new awe and wonder of family life and continually ponders the lessons of its joys and sorrows.  Her vocations of spouse and mother are her primary priority and cause of joy.  She has a deep desire to encourage others on their faith journey through retreat and camp experiences.  She is particularly passionate about creating youth and family experiences that provide opportunities for participants to encounter the Lord.  She hopes to help individuals create strong Catholic relationships and routines that will empower them to become active disciples.  In her leisure Jeni enjoys silence, spiritual reading, nature, exercise and encountering others who are also on this journey to sainthood.   

Aloha! I'm Tim Volk, Co-Founder of Camp Savio. Camp Savio was built on three foundational pillars: Prayer, Community, and Christ’s Love. Prayer is at the heart of everything we do—this is a "God Camp," where we seek His guidance and wisdom in everything we create. Community is at the core of our mission, as we invite others and families to join in and experience the love of Christ together. Our goal is to place God at the center, with community surrounding and Christ’s love enveloping all.

This deep love for the camp has been passed down through my family over the years. As a father of four and a husband to an amazing woman, I am profoundly grateful for the work of the Holy Spirit, the intercession of Mary, the saints, and all holy men and women. Thanks be to God, Camp Savio continues to be a place of authentic discipleship.

I strive to be mentally focused, physically fit, and spiritually sound—always rooted in my love for my family, my country, and my faith. I cherish traveling and spending time with my children, especially coaching them in soccer and watching them play.

I’ve had the privilege of serving the Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph for over 20 years, lived in Hawaii for four, and now reside in the Saint Louis area. It’s been a remarkable journey filled with blessings and grace, and I’m excited to see where God leads next.
