Connecticut Catholic Men's Conference
Saturday, October 10, 2026
7:30 AM to 4:00 PM
Holy Cross Catholic High School
588 Oronoke Road
Waterbury, CT 06708
Editor's note: Please DO NOT follow the driving directions on the conference's web site as they are incorrect. I complained last year after I got lost going there, but the incorrect directions were repeated this year. Also note that on-site parking will be extremely limited, especially if you arrive late. If you go, look up the address yourself and get your own directions, and be sure to arrive early. Oronoke Road is off Country Club Road, NOT Chase Parkway, which crosses the bridge over I-84 first. Last one in's a rotten egg. I went to the Scranton conference instead, which had plenty of free on-site parking all day, a large auditorium with plenty of seats, and allowed walk-in registration in cash at the bargain.
