Camp MAGIK/Camp Erin is pleased to announce its 2017 fall schedule of healing camps for children and teens. Camp MAGIK (Mainly About Grief In Kids)/Erin serves children who have experienced the death of a parent, sibling or other close family member within the past three years.  Camp MAGIK/Erin will provide an opportunity for children and teens to meet, talk, and process their grief with professional grief counselors. Time will also be spent on play and fun as a way to help the children heal from the experience of death in the family. Activities may include archery, canoeing, a ropes course, nature hikes, treasure hunts, hay rides, campfires, story-telling, and a talent show. Each camp will be divided into two groups, one for ages 7 - 11, and one for ages 12 - 18. Camp MAGIK/Erin sessions are free of charge for the children who attend.  Our Union Point camp is made possible through a generous grant from The Moyer Foundation and a generous donation from Jim McDonald in memory of his mother, Helen Agnes McDonald.
