Programs for High School Girls

Chestnut Center offers faith and character formation to Catholic high school girls and others through leadership programs, summer camps, recollections, spiritual direction, one-on-one mentoring, service projects and retreats.​

Camp Monte Stella

Join us for a week of fun activities at Camp Monte Stella. Activities include water sports, arts and crafts, archery, STEM activities, hiking, giant swing, campfire, and dance.  Participants have the opportunity to grow in their faith through virtue and catechism classes led by teen counselors.

Retreats

Retreats at Trumbull Manor provide an opportunity to reflect on one’s everyday life in the light of basic Christian principles. An atmosphere of personal prayer and recollection is maintained during the retreat. 


Holy Week Workshop

A time to reflect on ourselves and prepare for celebrations for the most holy season of the year. We aim to discover the true meaning of Lent. Contact center.chestnut@gmail.com for more details

Study Sessions

Students are welcome to use the study room at Chestnut Center. 

Lights! Camera! Action!

Every summer, college women and high school seniors are brought together for a week-long workshop in L.A. What joins them is having a keen insight into the industry, an understanding that there’s something going on in movies, tv shows, and video games, besides entertainment. For more information, contact westfield.residence@gmail.com or visit here.

Summer Camp Counselor Training

Teen leaders are invited to serve as counselors for two summer camps - Camp Monte Stella and Discovery Hills Day Camp, provide young women with skills and education in character to effectively guide young campers. Applications open soon. Learn more about it here.
