Youth Award Retreats

Each year, our Archdiocese holds retreats for the scouts. The day will reinforce each child's faith, as nurtured by their respective scouting program. We will grow in our Catholic Christian beliefs by listening, sharing, praying, singing, and playing. The day's activities are designed to jump start a scout's endeavors in working toward one of the CCOS awards.
