Camp Erin - Cincinnati Program
Our camp program includes a summer camp for children ages 7 - 12 and a retreat for teens ages 13 - 18. Each camp
and retreat has a theme, which is incorporated in all the activities throughout the camp or retreat
experience. For specific dates and registration information, please call our office.
Camp Erin - Cincinnati, Summer Camp
(for children ages 7 - 12)
The summer camp is a four-day, three night camp experience for children who are grieving the death of a family
member or friend, using expressive arts and physically challenging adventures in an outdoor setting. During the
camp, children are given the opportunity to work in a small group environment with other grieving children to
share their stories of loss, how their lives have been changed, their memories and their feelings. The camp offers
the children a chance to process their grief and also participate in traditional camp activities including
campfires, swimming and hiking.
Camp Erin - Cincinnati, Teen Retreat (for ages 13 - 18)
The teen retreat is an annual weekend retreat experience for youth ages 13 - 18 who are grieving the death of a
family member or friend. The retreat incorporates expressive arts and physically challenging adventures in an
outdoor setting. During the weekend, sharing groups and related activities promote positive self-esteem, encourage
safe expression of feelings and gives the participants an opportunity to interact with other grieving teens. The
highlight for many of the teens is the high ropes course.
