Retreats & Guest Groups

Camp Qwanoes offers a variety of weekend retreats for children, youth, adults and families, and also hosts guest groups such as schools and churches throughout the spring and fall. This is a great opportunity to re-connect with campers from the summer! We welcome summer staff to come as counselors, or to serve in the areas of program and operations support, at one or more of these events. Please call or email the camp to reserve a spot.
