COVID-19 Announcement
The health and well-being of visitors, campers and staff is our priority at Quinipet Camp & Retreat Center.
We’re diligently following recommended protocols and guidelines from the CDC on the Coronavirus and will continue to be vigilant in taking precautionary measures, beginning with the cancellation of our spring Open Houses in March, April and May of 2020.
Our 3rd Annual May "Spring Into Action"! Volunteer Weekend has also been cancelled.
As of now, we are still planning to run summer programs. However, we recognize that as summer grows nearer,
adjustments may be necessary based on developing guidance from the CDC and New York State Department of Health.
We remain in contact with experts, authorities and agencies who will help us make the best decisions for everyone. Our entire Quinipet community will be updated regarding the status of camp by as soon as we can. We appreciate your patience and understanding in advance.
Over the next few weeks, Quinipet's year-round staff will continue working remotely in order to remain healthy and in a position to reopen our doors as soon as possible. During this time, if you have questions about registration, programs, or retreat visits
please contact our camp office at quinipet@nyac.com.
Wishing you health and peace as we navigate this challenging period together.
"Now I encourage you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ: Agree with each other and don't be divided into rival groups. Instead, be restored with the same mind and the same purpose."– Corinthians 1:10

NYAC Camping & Retreat Ministry Board of Directors Shares Inclusivity Statement
In light of the recent 2019 Special Session of General Conference, the NYAC Camping & Retreat Ministry Board of Directors would like to clearly state that we fully accept all persons identifying as LGBTQIA+ into the life, ministry, and activities of our camp, and of our sister campsite, Kingswood.
Whether you are staff, camper, clergy, volunteer, or visitor, we welcome you!
As with the church, we are a work in progress and going forward we are taking steps to make our camps more inclusive settings for all people.
And please know that we are always open to suggestions for improvement.
Thank you for your openness, understanding, and support of our camps.
