    COVID-19 Response 

    Kwasind is an amazing place that provides young people with hope, opportunities, leadership and fun. One of the reasons Camp thrives is because we prioritize the safety and health of all campers, staff and guests. As we look to Summer 2023 we are moving ahead with plans to be able to operate as a Kids Summer Camp while creating the necessary adaptions to program to ensure we can meet all government and public health requirements related to Overnight Summer Camp COVID-19 guidelines and all Health services recommendations.

    It is important to know that we are following all health and safety measures put forward by our government and public health authorities and will continue to follow new requirements as they unfold.

  • Insider Reviews & Perspectives

    The Our Kids review of Camp Kwasind

    our take

    For more than 75 years Kwasind has attracted campers from across denominations and faith backgrounds. They are drawn by the values that are expressed here, as well as the size and culture of the camp. Kwasind is a place where every camper is known and feels a part of the community while he or she is at camp. The lakefront is  focus, and rightly so. Cabins and infrastructure are up to date in all the important ways. The activities are those associated with a traditional camp experience, including leadership training. There are also opportunities for campers to explore their faith with peers and mentors, perhaps particularly within the 2-week LEAP sessions.

    Great camp on all fronts - Must attend
    JP Petines (Parent)

    My daughter arrived at camp not quite knowing what to expect, and joining a program she had not previously done. Her cabin leaders helped her settle in quickly. The staff were very organized and welcoming (they cheer you on as you enter the premises). They did a variety of fun indoor and outdoor activities with new friends for a whole week. There were a lot of activities that helped build up my daughter's confidence. Most importantly, she learned more about God. She's excited to do it again next year ... Read More
