"CARPE DIEM - A FESTIVAL FOR CHRIST"
Our theme this year celebrates a Festival for Christ --- encouragring us to Seize the Day as we do. In our 51 years of retreats – we continue to celebrate this Festival for Christ and challange you to do the same. Seize the Day and the entire weekend as we begin Friday night with our opening campfire. Then there are songs, skits, and scouting fun – and you might learn just a little of what is in store for you on Saturday.
The opening flag ceremony on Saturday morning will start on your weekend’s journey of faith and fun. You will experience workshops, skits, talks, games, and a little prayer – all written by fellow scouts for you.
On Sunday morning, we celebrate Mass overlooking the lake and the rising sun. As you pack your gear after Mass, you’re sure to have many great memories of this weekend.
What’s really in store for scouts who join us this year? We’ve said too much already. You will have to attend and discover the rest for yourself! Our Youth Staff has planned a new and unique program this year, and they look forward to welcoming you! See you on September 22nd!
