What is this 80th Anniversary “S’MORES & MORE” Celebration & Fundraising Dinner?
This is a new event in which friends and alumni of Kwasind will once again gather around our “campfire” circle and have an opportunity to celebrate how the ministry of Camp Kwasind has been a catalyst for developing young leaders, a champion of the importance of every young person getting a Christian summer camp experience and a bridge connecting the campers and staff to Jesus.
In this historic gathering marking the 80th summer of Kwasind we will see just how far we’ve come since we were last together for the 75th Anniversary, get an insight into the future developments for Kwasind and be empowered to be a champion for Kwasind through our prayers, volunteering, encouragement and financial support.
Be ready for an evening that will connect with your friends (old and new), provide an engaging and fun program, time to have great conversations over the 3-course dinner and getting the opportunity to hear first how “OUR POTENTIAL IS LIMITLESS” going into the future!
