The L&S staff facilitates retreats during the school year. Whether you come for one night or for a week, we are here to help you plan a way for your youth group to get away. You can rent our facilities and create your own programming, let our staff program everything or a mixture of both. Our staff wants to be a resource for you as you plan your trip to SIFAT's campus.
