Looking for an awesome retreat for your youth group during those long winter holiday weekends? Search no further than our Winter Retreat! 

Join us for an action packed weekend, filled with summer camp favorites! Youth groups can bring their own speakers or choose to use one of Ridge Haven’s speakers, and will be able to enjoy all the benefits of spiritual rest and renewal usually enjoyed on youth retreats. Youth leaders can focus on relationships and fellowship with their students—without the worry of creating games and other activities to keep students engaged. Ridge Haven's qualified and fun event staff will focus on creating spaces to allow youth to engage, so you can focus on the important discipleship aspects of youth ministry.

“I just wanted to thank you and your staff for all that y’all did for us this weekend. Y’all made an impact on my life and I do not think I will ever forget getting in the lake last night. Already counting down until next year. #362days”
— Browder G.
