Staff
Reunion
Weekend
June 5-7, 2026
We’d like to welcome you back to Qwanoes!
We’re inviting our past staff and their families to join in on celebrating 60 amazing years of ministry! This is an ideal opportunity to reconnect with friends from the past, to spark memories, and to experience camp once again.
Russ Smith will be leading us in music and be ready to meet staff from the past AND of course the current team.
We’ll enjoy some special fireside times together, a couple Q-Towns, some family friendly All Star games, and a weekend all about celebrating, remembering and reconnecting! We hope you can join in! Saturday will include our 60th Anniversary Open House!
The perfect blend of recreation and friendship, relaxation and discovery. Prepare yourself for the smiles. Togetherness. And countless memories. Young, old, single parent…all families are welcome!
Go on an adventure together!
Through a gifted speaker, excellent food, special music, exciting programs for you and your family, God will challenge and strengthen your family.
Featuring: Qwanoes Beach is open…from wakeboarding and riding the Rocket to kayaking and playing on the Aqua Park, tons of water adventures awaits! Plus, from simply relaxing to the fun and togetherness of optional family activities, our experienced program team has something planned for everyone. Our Q‑Town sessions will include singing, fun skits, interaction, and sharing.
