The closest airport is the St. Louis Lambert International Airport. The drive to Camp Cana is approximately 1.5 hours from the airport, but can often take a bit longer depending on traffic. Participants are welcome to drive to Cana, and on-site parking is available at camp.

 

Unfortunately we do not offer a shuttle for transportation.

Accommodations at Cana are camp-style with a variety of different configurations and people per building. You will be asked to indicate whether or not you are attending the retreat with others so we can accommodate when possible.

 

Please plan to bring your own bedding with you. We will have limited bedding available for those who are flying in and cannot fit bedding in their luggage.

Unfortunately no, we cannot transfer your registration to another person.

If you have a food allergy or dietary restriction we need to be aware of, please let us know when registering. There is a section that allows you to share this information with us during the online registration process. We always do our very best to accommodate your needs.

If you are unable to arrive in time for check-in, that is ok, but please let us know ahead of time. We are happy to greet you upon your arrival and will make sure you get settled in.
