February 13-16, 2026
an in-person gathering

Hooray for YAF weekends at Quaker Center! If you are a young adult aged 18-35 and you identify as a Quaker or feel Quaker-adjacent, this event is for you. You may be a member or attender of a Friends Meeting, or a newcomer to a Meeting or Quakers generally, or unaffiliated with any group or Meeting, or just interested in Quakers. You’re invited.

Over a three-day Presidents Day weekend, we’ll spend time having fun and cooking food, playing games and hanging out, in conversation and song, hiking and exploring, in Worship and Worship Sharing, and creating community.

Stay tuned for more information about the themes and activities
of this gathering.

If you’re unable to come for the whole three-day weekend, you are welcome to come for some part of it.

Children of attenders are also welcome and childcare will be provided at various times.

Housing will be in the Orchard and Redwood Lodges, and camping and commuting (visiting in the daytime and sleeping elsewhere) are also welcome.

This is a participant-led retreat and there are opportunities to sign up to volunteer on the registration form.

This is a reduced cost, pay-as-led event from $0 on up. We hope that finances will not prevent anyone from attending. If you are affiliated with a Quaker Meeting, it is also possible to use an Annual Meeting Pass to attend.
