New in 2026, Fusion is partnering with trusted local church camps to provide safe, off-campus housing for youth groups. Rather than staying in campus dorms, students will lodge at established church camps located just a short drive from the IWU Marion Campus. While Fusion has partnered with trusted local camps to help secure very affordable rates, housing costs are now handled directly by each youth group.
Why the change? Watch this short video.
These camps offer clean, secure accommodations and a welcoming environment designed with student safety and comfort in mind. To help keep Fusion affordable for families, conference registration has been reduced to $45 per student (down from $55), helping offset housing costs while maintaining a high-quality conference experience.

Bryn is a senior majoring in Illustration and Honors Humanities. Bryn did not grow up attending Fusion but has either volunteered or worked as a team member for the past three years. Although she did not get to experience Fusion for herself as a kid, she has seen so many middle and high schoolers take steps to go deeper in their relationship with Jesus. She is excited once again for how the Lord will move at Fusion in and through the body of students this year and can't wait to work with the entire Fusion team!
Cole is a senior Youth Ministry Student here at IWU. His life was changed when God met him at an event just like Fusion when he was in High School. This is his fourth year helping with Fusion, but his first year in this role! Cole is most excited to see how God will meet both students and youth leaders at Fusion this year and help bring them closer together in community!
Jonathan is a Senior studying Youth and Pastoral Ministries. This is his third year helping out with Fusion and his first year as an executive. He is super excited to serve alongside other amazing leaders and see students encounter Jesus!
