Cornerstone Hospice’s Camp Bridges

Monday, June 3 to Friday, June 7, 2024

Camp Bridges is a FREE, annual, overnight week of camp for children and teens grieving the loss of a loved one held at Camp Boggy Creek, 30500 Brantley Branch Road, Eustis, Florida.

What is Camp Bridges?

If your child or teen has experienced the loss of a loved one, then you may want to think about participating in our annual, overnight bereavement camp. There is nothing more important than reaching out to kids and helping them deal with their grief in an environment filled with compassion, understanding, empathy and fun to promote the healing process for each camper.

Cornerstone Hospice has offered Camp Bridges for almost 30 years, helping children ages five to high school with a therapeutic experience. We weave fun activities into an opportunity to share observations about the natural cycle of life and death.

Camp Bridges offers the unique opportunity for children who are grieving to join together in a safe space where they can connect with other kids who are going through a similar experience.

There is No Cost — Camp Bridges is funded by our generous sponsors, allowing your child to attend camp for free.
