Rising 6th, 7th, and 8th Grade Students
For centuries, people have made pilgrimages in an effort to encounter God. El Camino de Santiago (“the Way of St. James”) is a famous network of pilgrimage routes across Europe leading to the tomb of St. James the Apostle, located in Santiago, Spain.
Here at Santiago Retreat Center, Camp El Camino provides youth with an exciting Christian pilgrimage experience in Orange County. Campers will make friends, have fun, grow in faith and holiness, and encounter Christ along “The Way”!
Living Christian lives in our society is not easy, especially for youth. Camp El Camino offers youth a space to encounter Christ and find fellow Christian pilgrims in our Christian journey toward God. It is an opportunity for each beloved pilgrim to intentionally begin their pilgrimage – their Camino with Christ and transform their hearts!

July 9-14, 2023 BLOSSOM SUMMER CAMP
CAMP PARTICIPANTS
Campers: 8 -13 yrs

Blossom Camp is a week-long camp for girls ages 8-13 years old. We have plenty of laughs, get a little dirty, hike, swim, face the low ropes challenge, play games, sing campfire songs and make great friends. But our greatest treasures at Blossom Camp are celebrating the Sacraments, reinforcing the beauty and dignity of every girl with unique formation themes, and getting to see and meet religious sisters from several different orders throughout the week as they lead us each day. This is what makes Blossom Camp a one-of-a-kind experience!
"Anyone who has a daughter should consider sending them to Blossom
Camp, there is nothing else like it to grow your Catholic Faith."
