The Saint George Trek is the National Catholic Committee on Scouting’s high adventure Catholic leadership program for older Catholic Boy Scouts and Venture Crew members at Philmont Scout Ranch. The program brings Catholic high school youth from around the country together with selected priests, religious, and seminarians for eleven days of backpacking in the context of a vocation retreat.

Due to extremely limited funding, we can only consider candidates actively discerning a call to the priesthood or religious life. Additional fundraising by the Scout may be required. Interested Scouts are encouraged to contact the CCOS Committee Chair for more information.
