From the morning pipe reveille to the nightly rosary procession, the Call to Chivalry camp is truly an incredible sight. Co-sponsored by The American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property (TFP), Tradition, Family, Property – Louisiana and the Saint Louis de Montfort Academy, this year’s camps will be held at the Feliciana Retreat Center in Norwood, Louisiana in July and at the Saint Louis de Monfort Academy in Pennsylvania in August.
Catholic boys, ages 12-18, travel from all over the nation to attend the programs which seeks to provide the right mix of informative talks, action-packed games and manly piety. Judging from the reaction of past experience, they seem to have reached this goal.
Piety is always an essential element in the camp program. Prayer, the rosary and Holy Communion make up the “spiritual arms” of these modern day knights. In addition, participants learn that knights are not just figures from the past. Rather, they are challenged to adopt the same code of chivalry in their modern-day lives.
