SANTIAGO ENRICHMENT WEEKENDS
FIAT ENRICHMENT WEEKENDS
FIAT girls enrichment weekends are designed to give young girls an adventure to be Fully Alive. Together they will play games, face challenges, sing songs, laugh, hike, pray, and make life-long friends. Campers will explore what it means to live their FIAT, saying Yes! “Be it done to me according to Thy word” through humility, purity, charity, and the openness to obeying God’s plan. Join us and take a step closer to radically embracing the beauty and dignity of every woman through Mary and the Sacraments. Each month will focus on a theme designed to address the monthly liturgical calendar and Saints of the Catholic Church.

Throughout the year, Quo Vadis Formation Weekend Camps are designed to teach young boys how to be Vanguards of hearts, minds, and souls. Each month will focus on a theme designed to address the monthly liturgical calendar of the Catholic Church.
Quo Vadis Vanguards are young men who are heeding God’s call to be spiritual first responders, learning to lead others into the fray, positioning themselves to be right hand men, bravely going where lesser men fear to tread, paving the way, setting the example, being role models, serving as men for others.

CATHOLIC FAMILY CAMPouT
WEEKEND
Join in for some good ol’ fashioned fun, family and fellowship. This family camp out experience is unique as Santiago Retreat Center is close to the city, yet rustic and tucked away into the foothills of the Santa Ana Mountains. Families will be treated to optional Catholic programming and Sunday mass. Our Shroud Center exhibit will be available for campers to explore the science of the Shroud of Turin. Our camping site boasts 27 RV sites with 5 pull through full RV hookup locations. There is tent camping, car camping, roof top tent camping, tear drop trailers, vanlife dwellings and of course RVs. Our grounds provide public bathrooms and showers along with picnic tables and a beautiful swimming pool.
Family Camp-out is a weekend of fun, prayer, the sacraments and focusing on the things that matter most. Equip your family to face whatever lies ahead with faith, courage, and authenticity!
