SLU Pastor's Golf Retreat

Frequently Asked Questions

What is on the agenda?
The only activities planned are optional tee times on Monday and Tuesday and group dinners and dessert receptions on Monday and Tuesday night. The rest of the time is left for the pastors to network, connect and relax.

Do I need to stay at Bay Hill to attend the retreat?
Yes. The lodge requires all retreat attendees to stay onsite.

Do I have to play golf to attend?
No. We usually have many attendees come who don’t play golf. Some pastors use that time to work out, play tennis, network with other pastors or have downtime to think. You only pay for golf if you play.

Can I bring my wife?
This is a time for pastors to rest, recharge and connect with others from around the country. There are no activities for wives.
