Notre Dame offers four retreats each year, one for each grade level. Freshman and sophomore classes participate in one-day "Breakaway days" and are attended by all students in the grade level. Junior and senior retreats are optional multi-day events. Each retreat has its own program content and supply needs. The volunteer works in partnership with Alicia Aguilar (Campus Minister for Spirituality and Justice) to gather materials specific to each retreat from on-campus storage areas and prepare materials (activity supplies, participant folders, information and materials for staff chaperones and retreat locations). Campus Ministry staff and the volunteer will review materials in storage and determine any items that need to be ordered. The volunteer will gather supplies, prepare storage boxes for transporting to retreat locations, unpack boxes when the retreats are over and return reusable items for retreats to storage for future use. Volunteer may be asked to keep track of quality and quantities of retreat materials. Schedule is flexible and based on retreat dates (i.e., needs significantly increase closer to retreat dates)

This is where parents sign up to help with our 2026 Spring Musical "The Prom" that runs April 23-26. Thank you in advance for your help! Four eccentric Broadway stars are in desperate need of a new stage. So when they hear that trouble is brewing around a small-town prom, they know that it’s time to put a spotlight on the issue… and themselves. The town’s parents want to keep the high school dance on the straight and narrow—but when one student just wants to bring her girlfriend to prom, the entire town has a date with destiny. On a mission to make a difference, the Broadway stars team up with the courageous student, leading to a transformation that brings everyone together in the name of love and acceptance.
