• He believed that athletes could use their platform of influence to present Jesus Christ to the entire culture in a powerful way.

• McClanen officially began FCA in 1954.

• The first FCA Camp was held in 1956 at Estes Park, CO with 256 athletes and coaches attending.

• The campus ministry began with the formation of FCA Huddles in 1966.

• Since then, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes has expanded into the largest sports ministry in the world.
