Camp Kerry is a weekend retreat for parents and children grieving the death of a loved one.

The camp offers an opportunity for young families to meet others in similar circumstances. Through this process we aim to foster a “community of belonging” which decreases isolation and increases hope & mutual understanding.

Participants also gain new tools and skills that assist them in coping with their grief.

Qualified counselors and specially trained volunteers  provide a variety of therapeutic and recreational programming including: music & art therapy, nature hikes, climbing wall, swimming, sports & games, yoga & relaxation, sharing circles, labyrinth meditations, campfires, and a candlelight memory service.

Camp Kerry is a place to:  

• Relax in the beauty of nature
• Meet new friends
• Play and have fun together as a family
• Share thoughts, feelings & memories in a supportive environment
• Discover strength, courage and healing...

Families stay in individual cabins with bunk beds and shared washrooms nearby. Delicious, home-cooked meals are provided in a central dining room.
