Summer Splash June 22-26
Located at the Jesuit vacation spot in Waupaca on the Chain of Lakes in central Wisconsin, this is an opportunity to get to know the Jesuits better in the relaxed atmosphere and beauty of the rustic Loyola Villa. There will be presentations on Jesuit life by Jesuits in training, daily Mass, chances for small group sharing, and plenty of time to enjoy the lakes—with swimming, water skiing, canoeing and good Jesuit-cooked meals. (This program is for younger candidates, 16–20 years old.)
