Overview
Weekend Retreats offer a fun, engaging, and supportive environment where students can catch up with old friends and meet new ones from across the state.
Designed for students ages 14–21, these retreats take place in Des Moines from September through May (excluding November and March). Each weekend provides a short-term commitment with long-term benefits, focusing on essential blindness skills in a relaxed and social setting!
Activities vary throughout the year and may include attending performances at the Des Moines Civic Center, exploring a corn maze, sledding at Sleepy Hollow, movie nights, scavenger hunts, and more.
Join us for an unforgettable experience that combines friendship, fun, and valuable skill-building!
