Diamond Anniversary of WYM Quaker Knoll Summer Camps

Quaker Knoll logoQuaker Knoll has been home to the Wilmington Yearly Meeting’s Youth Summer Camps for seventy-five years! We will gather for worship in the Lodge on Sunday, May 24th. Sunday afternoon & evening are unscheduled times; overnight camping is “on your own.” See below for the tentative schedule!

Mark your calendar now, and see if your Meeting can participate in the WYM Worship Meeting on Sunday the 24th! We are hopeful that with internet now available to Quaker Knoll, the Meeting for Worship can be joined via Zoom.
