History
Established in 1982.
The ground of Camp Quarryledge were first quarried in the mid-1880’s by the Wormley family. Limestone rock was sold to many builders, and you can still find homes and structures in the Oswego area built from limestone quarried here.
In the early 1900’s, the YWCA of Aurora purchased the grounds for a youth campground. This grounds served youth and families from across the area for many decades.
Community of Christ (then known as the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints) purchased Camp Quarryledge in the early 1980s, to establish a local campground for use by members of the surrounding districts. At the time Camp Quarryledge was purchased, it had the cabins and structures used during the days as a youth camp. Church reunions and youth camps held services and meetings in large tents, and participants stayed in cabins and tents across the grounds.
The Lodge was built in 1988, and continues to serve as the center of activity at Camp Quarryledge.
