Your Mt. Hood home for camps, conferences, retreats and events

Thank You!

For over 75 years, Camp Arrah Wanna has held a unique role in the life story of countless people throughout the Northwest. It has become an extraordinary place to meet and experience God, establish lifelong friendships, develop young leaders, and so much more. As we look ahead and consider how we might ensure an even greater impact over the next 75 years, it has become abundantly clear that we must address our greatest current shortcomings: outdated facilities and insufficient staffing to meet current and future goals. ​​

McCurdy Admin Building

Because we have the desire to welcome ALL campers, we intentionally keep our rental and registration costs as low as possible. In order to carry forward the legacy of this special place and its program, we depend on generous financial donations and volunteer hours from our loyal supporters. Every capital project, camper scholarship, and a few operational elements are made possible by people who love this place enough to invest in its history and its future through their donations.

Maintenance Shop

​In addition to operating funds during slow months, our second largest need is to raise funds to finish replacing the Maintenance Shop that burned down July 14, 2024.


The site has been prepped, new access driveway has been cut, and the main shop building is dried in and operational! Our facilities Director, Sean, is very thankful for a space to work that is NOT his garage and driveway! We have a few more finishing touches to go before we can say the project is complete, but it's a blessing to have this new space.

From April 1st–15th, Camp Arrah Wanna stepped into a season of gratitude, anticipation, and faith—trusting in the Goodness of God as we continue building a place where lives are shaped, hearts are renewed, and young people encounter Christ in the beauty of His creation. With your help, we raised over $12,000 through this online/virtual fundraising event. ​

Fundraising Results from the ...

Did you know we expanded our property? Thanks to some generous investors, this beautiful house was purchased for CAW to use as a much-needed Administration Building.


Now comes the fun part - buying out the investors! Will you help us raise $600,00 in the next 5 years so we can call it 100% ours?

What is currently our Main Office will transition into a Guest Reception Office, complete with the Camp Store! 


Having private offices set apart from Main Camp will give our staff the peaceful and functional space we have needed for SO LONG!
