Don Mattingly, Centrifuge founder, remembered as innovator in student camping | Baptist Press NASHVILLE (BP) – Don Mattingly’s belief in camps and young people as leaders led him to see possibilities others didn’t. Southern Baptists saw it with the first Centrifuge summer in 1979. It has continued, with that ministry expecting its two millionth camper this year.
