Reviews & Insider Perspectives

The Our Kids review of Camp Kwasind

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.

Director's Message

Last year Camp Kwasind completely SOLD OUT and we were thrilled to be able to provide hundreds of young people with a life-changing experience where they grew in leadership, confidence, character and faith.

Today young people are looking for a place to belong, somewhere they know that people believe in them and be given the chance to experience new things to discover who they created to be. Camp Kwasind has a legacy of 80 years of being a leader in the camp industry when it comes to being safe, affordable and fun camp experience for campers ages 7-17 and as a Christian Camp we are committed to walking with young people as they become a living demonstration of God's love to their world.

It is an amazing opportunity to bring together an environment where campers can explore new activities, build lasting friendship, discover depths of faith, and have well trained and mature staff committed to giving each camper memories that will last a life time.

This is the place where youth belong and we they reach out to discover their potential. Look forward to seeing returning campers, new campers and friends of campers all being part of Camp Kwasind 2025.

Staff and Counsellors

We have a diverse staff with an incredible ration of 1 staff member for every 3 campers. These staff have been thorough reference checked, screened, interviewed and uniquely placed into roles that allow them to thrive in their giftings. We have many staff who are also well into their twenties that brings about a more mature while also incredible fun staff team for the campers. We provide our staff with over 100hrs of unique training in preparation for their summer time work.
