Salesian Leadership Camp June 13-19, 2026
Camp DeSales looks forward to hosting our annual celebration of Salesian identity, friendship, and mission.
Salesian Leadership Camp blends Salesian virtues with hands-on practical leadership skills. Join students from current and former Oblate and Visitation high schools around the country in learning a Salesian leadership philosophy which is rooted in self-confidence, global awareness, prayer, respect, communication, and service to God through neighbor. Daily Mass and night prayer are an integral part of our week together.
Salesian Leadership Camp will:
• boost confidence
• improve communication skills
• teach you to work better in groups
• help you develop your unique gifts
• bring Salesian spirituality to your school
Camp De Sales is located on the sunny shores of Vineyard Lake in Brooklyn, Michigan. Along with the great leadership program, the camp offers wonderful waterfront activities (swimming, kayaking, tubing, paddle boards), sports, food and a low-ropes course.
Participating schools include: St. Francis de Sales, Bishop Ireton, Salesianum, Fr. Judge, Georgetown Visi, Mendota Heights Vis, St. Louis Viz, Windsock Visitation, St. Mary's-Stockton, Padua Academy, and St. Paul VI.
"We have no bond but the bond of love which is the bond of perfection."
