Camp Caritas
Program Overview
We are excited to welcome over 150 students to our campus this summer! Students will be divided into 8 random groups. Students will arrive and depart through the B&P cafeteria.
Students will arrive to our campus between 8:15-8:30AM. Class will begin promptly at 8:30AM and will end at 3:00PM, except for Thursday when we will finish at 3:30PM. Students will not be admitted after 8:40AM and will not receive credit for completing the program. Attendance at all sessions is mandatory.
Student materials, including a t-shirt, backpack, notebook, pen, and folder, will be provided by the program.
Schedule of Activities
Students will spend the week with a small group of students led by a catechist and will participate in interactive activities, guest speaker presentations, acts of service, catechism lessons, and daily Mass.
We will provide each student with a daily snack, and all students are asked to bring their own lunch along with a water bottle to refill during the day. Unfortunately, refrigerators are not available. Students may bring additional snacks to enjoy throughout the day.
See below for schedule
Pilgrimage
Camp participants will be going on a field trip on Thursday, June 20 to take part in a religious pilgrimage. More information will be shared about the pilgrimage as we get closer to our summer program.
Remember that pilgrimages are sacred encounters with our faith and that we must all be in a prayerful mindset during the day. The goal of this experience is to learn about these visible expressions of the Catholic faith and how the Holy Spirit can guide us in this next phase of our lives after we receive Confirmation.
Note that our day will end at 3:30PM rather than 3:00PM on Thursday.
Service Project
One of the hallmarks of Bonner & Prendie, and the Catholic Church as a whole, is a commitment to serving the poor, vulnerable, and marginalized. We are in the process of determining the final service project.
