Registration opens February 15, 2012
Families and Youth for America
A Monticello College 2012 Summer Retreat
July 9-13, 2012
Celebrating the Family
This life-changing experience will help all members of your family fall in love with each other and America, want to study the classics, desire a great education, and it will jumpstart them to study harder and prepare themselves to make a difference in the world.
Perhaps most importantly, your children will meet some of the best youth in the nation—they will feel that they have peers who care about the important things they do, and they will make new friends that will change their lives.
Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity for the whole family to enjoy the beauties of the Blue Mountains and catch the vision of a Thomas Jefferson Education on the campus of Monticello College!
There are classes and activities for children ages 6-12,
young adults ages 13-18, and adults. The daily schedule consists of:
