[SR] Students | Winter Retreat 2026

Important update:
Due to the winter storm expected this weekend, the retreat will take place as planned but students will be departing Spruce Lake between 9-10PM on Saturday night, with anticipated arrival back at Syosset campus for pickup around midnight.

This early departure allows us to travel back to Long Island ahead of the storm while still giving students the opportunity to participate in and enjoy the bulk of the retreat experience.
