Father & Son Weekend Retreat

For 10- to 13-year-old boys and their dads/mentors

October 3-5, 2025

There are some moments in life you'll never get back -- this is one you don't want to miss. Catapult is a weekend designed just for fathers and their 10- to 13-year-old sons-a chance to slow down, unplug, and strengthen your bond through shared experiences, outdoor adventures, and meaningful conversations.

We've taken care of the planning so you can focus on what matters most-building lifelong memories. From archery tag, rock wall climbing, and fast-paced, team-building games to "Dinner in the Dirt," every moment is intentional and impactful. Do as much or as little as you want, but you're sure to enjoy the camaraderie of other fathers and sons as you strengthen your relationship during this weekend of adventure.

You won't regret taking time for this one-of-a-kind, one-on-one experience. Join us for a weekend of fun, faith, and fatherhood-because these years go by fast, but the memories will last forever.
