DB NLC: All Class Retreat 2026
Join us in January for the National Leadership Council (NLC) All Class Retreat!
It’s a time to celebrate the graduating classes, welcome the new classes, and to connect in person.
WHO CAN ATTEND:
-
- NLC teens (required)
- Mentors (encouraged; mentors of graduating teens strongly encouraged!)
- Parents of graduating NLC teens
For mentors who can’t attend and family members whom we can’t accommodate in person, we offer several events virtually: the inspirational talk, keynote address, award ceremony + NLC in Action videos, and the graduation ceremony.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT:
ACR registration includes all meals and housing for the weekend. Parents and mentors are housed by class in the historic Maybeck houses on Principia College campus with bedding provided. Teens are housed with their class and will need to bring a sleeping bag. The guesthouse is not available this weekend, so dorm rooms will be assigned as participants register. Local families are encouraged to fully commit to the weekend by staying at the college.
