The Jesuit Retreat House on Lake Winnebago will welcome overnight guests attending the 2023 EAA AirVenture scheduled for Monday, July 24, to Sunday, July 30. Individuals and groups who are faith-based, have a social justice or education focus, or promote care for the environment are particularly welcomed. A daily morning Mass is available to those staying at JRH. Given our mission as a retreat house and the expectations of neighbors, we seek to maintain a quiet environment.
