Register your retreat or camp days with us.
Procter Center is a retreat, camp, farm and event facility for daytime and overnight groups. Whether you prefer events online, or the conversation and connection you have from attending events in-person, we serve spiritual, community, business, and youth organizations, as well as families and individuals who seek inspiration, reflection, education, teambuilding, and togetherness in a simple, peaceful, and secluded setting. The center sits on 200 acres of a 1,300+ acre site in predominately agricultural Madison County, Ohio. Conveniently located between Columbus and Cincinnati. Procter Center is owned and operated by the Diocese of Southern Ohio.
