This is the inaugural year for the St. Wolbodo Youth Retreat. Our aim is to provide Anglican youth with a few days to escape the busyness of the world and focus on the faith while enjoying team building activities and summer recreation in the beautiful Rocky Mountains of Larkspur, Colorado. Each day will consist of the Daily Offices and the Eucharist, coupled with a Bible Study, group activities provided by the camp, a liturgical-based class, and night games/activities. We will also complete a service project.

Campers will be challenged to grow spiritually, physically, emotionally, and socially. Opportunities will abound for making new friends and meeting people from all over the United States, learning leadership skills, taking responsibility for oneself and others, and having lots of fun!
