A CSA Retreat is an AWESOME weekend away with 80 of your closest friends. There are talks about being Catholic with clear explanations of why we do what we do. So, if you're a little new or just out of practice with your faith, don't worry. We'll clue you in on everything we're doing and give you lots of chances to ask questions.
You can expect Mass, prayer, and small groups. We also take time out for sports, games, and general recreation time. There's also quite time for you to hang out by the water or talk with friends, a campfire for making s'mores, and plenty of good food. Everybody likes something different about these retreats, but in all the years we've been hosting them, we don't know of anyone who was sorry that they came!

CSA Retreats are for college students (ages 18-24) from Rutgers or other colleges in the Central Jersey area.
The easiest way to sign up for a retreat is to sign up and pay online with a credit card. Or you can download an application and drop it off with your payment at the front table of the Catholic Center. Registration forms and payment should be dropped off at the front desk of the Catholic Center.
Retreat typically takes place about 45 minutes from New Brunswick at beautiful Camp Tecumseh. Each semester, we meet at the church, give you directions, and even set you up with some new friends & a ride to Retreat!
You should ofcourse bring a change of clothes, toilettries, as well as a blanket/sleeping bag and a pillow. You can bring a journal to write in and a Bible! You might also want to bring a rosary or other prayer materials if you want to use them during any prayer time. Moreover, you can bring some snacks, but all meals are provided.
The retreat starts Friday evening and ends on Sunday afternoon. Typically, retreatants stay overnight in the cabins.
